Hi Richard,
I know re-installation can be a pain, but I wonder how many people running
a 32bit distro in 2020 are doing it on 64bit hardware... Likely most?
No doubt, it's a pain, especially when we are not running a vanilla
installation.
At first, on this machine here, it was not recommanded to run the 64 bit
mode, because of the many issues of the 64 bit OS. Therefore, I have
installed the the 32 bit mode software and I have upgraded nearly on
every release change. Then came GNOME 3 and I have switched to xfce
because I have a computer and not a big circus game console. Now, the 32
bit software is not more available on Fedora.
If a reinstallation is necessary, I think I will prefer the 64 bit
Debian, although Debian is still available for the 32 bit architecture.
The short lifetime of a Fedora release is a problem for me. With Debian,
the problem is different, because many packages are really outdated. I
confess, that a reinstallation is not a very exciting job for me.
Best wishes,
Claude (DJ0OT)
