If you could really come up without any requirement for SSE this would<br>
be great since the goal of Debian is to support all those architectures<br>
if possible.<br>
<br>
If you could confirm this attempt I might go for an amd64 package<br>
exclusively for the moment and wide the number of architectures later<br>
in a clean way.<br>
<br>
Kind regards<br>
<br>
