mmx related packages

[Chanop Silpa-Anan <chanop@syseng.anu.edu.au>]

Hi,

After trying to get some dv software running, I have noticed that a few
packages have mmx code in it, e.g. quicktime4linux, libdv, libjpeg-mmx.
I wonder if there is any policy/guide line for this? if I would like to
package mmx optimized binary.

i386/i486 wouldn't run these codes unless people install mmx emulation.
Some packages can be conditionally compiled with / without mmx without
much of a headache, some cannot.

I suppose multi-binaries is the only right way to go.
