I assumed that powerpcspe could lead to confusion with the SPE/SPU CPUs which can be found on cell blades and PS3. The 'g' comes from gnuspe, the last part in th gcc tripplet. Do you thing it causing more trouble than good? >Another possibility could be ppc(g)spe, matching the ppc64 >architecture, but it might be better to be closer to the 32 bits one. Why do we want matching the ppc64 arch? The CPUs support only 32bit. ppc(g)spe makes the name smaller which might be handy. > >thanks, >guillem Sebastian -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
