</div>At the moment we have less than 600 packages that are older than their<br>
counterparts on the primary archs, 9800 packages are at the same level.<br>
Unfortunately some of the 'big' packages like python, binutils or the<br>
latest gcc<br>
have issues that either block progress completely or force us to use<br>
older versions<br>
until they get fixed.<br>
<br>
Nonetheless we're currently working on getting some installable images,<br>
