<br>
>From the thread on Ubuntu-devel/discuss [1] I'm going to start<br>
conversations with each flavor on what their plans are for i386 in the<br>
18.04 timeframe.<br>
<br>
The general ideas are either:<br>
*Start Dropping i386 for Mythbuntu now*<br>
A. Drop Mythbuntu i386 ISO for 16.10<br>
B. In addition to A, also block upgrades by dropping packages from<br>
i386 archive (say mythtv).<br>
<br>
Some Pros: Halves the test cases you need to go through. Reduces<br>
bandwidth usage and makes it more obvious for new users what to<br>
download. (Read other thread for some others)<br>
<br>
*Wait until after 18.04 and then reconsider dropping i386*<br>
<br>
Pros: Maintain older hardware running Mythbuntu for another 2+<br>
years (up from 3 years).<br>
<br>
Thoughts?<br>
Bryan<br>
<br>
* You could consider any packages that are 100% specific to the<br>
Mythbuntu flavor.<br>

<br>
i386 - To be clear I mean any 32-bit x86 platform (usually AMD/Intel/VIA).<br>
