Description: CPU feature checking - require amd64-baseline
 The packages in the isa-support family probe for microprocessor Instruction
 Set Architecture features such as SSE3. By refusing to install on machines
 lacking a required feature, they allow ISA requirements to be handled in
 terms of package dependencies.
 .
 This is a mostly dummy package which checks for amd64-baseline and
 refuses to install on unsupported hardware.
 .
 This is the Micro-Architecture Levels baseline for Debian under
 x86-64 architecture, corresponding to x86-64 psABI v1.
 .
 This includes:
  - cmov instruction (CMOV instruction set),
  - cmpxchg8b ant other 64 bits atomics instruction (CX8 instruction set),
  - MMX a single instruction, multiple data (SIMD) instruction set,
  - streaming SIMD Extensions (SSE) set, a single instruction, multiple data
   (SIMD) instruction set extension,
  - SSE2 an incremental upgrade to SSE.
 .
 On ABIs other than the x86-64 psABI they select the same CPU features
 as the x86-64 psABI documents for the particular micro-architecture level.
