Hi, The distrowatch knows only five (really 2.5) RPM-based distros with fixed-release model and armv7 support: openSUSE/SLES, Fedora (which already discontinued armv7), Mageia, and ALT Linux. So, I would say that armv7l support for Leap should stay. But in-fact it seems to be half-dead. If anybody knows what I (personally) can do to help enable repos/QA for 15.3, please tell. > > While small 32bit boards nice because they are cheap the performance is > quite limiting.
