arm-linux profiles already exist. I proved it was easy to do years ago |

so I'm confused on what you are trying to do. However, do not add any |
21 |
arm-linux keywords to the tree! Also, you are extremely confused about |
22 |
what it means now that gx86 and prefix are "merged" (Hint, nothing |
23 |
changed and nothing is more or less 'merged'). I am also confused |
24 |
about what you mean by "expect arch-linux and arch finally to be |
25 |
merged" -- 'x86-linux' will never become 'x86' |
