Bug Description
Binary package hint: luxrender
LuxRender is a free software rendering system for physically correct image synthesis, licensed under the GPLv3.
It compiles natively under GNU for amd64 and i686. The latter has two variants, the first requiring SSE2 extensions, but it is possible to build a version for legacy i686 systems with only regular SSE extensions. At the time of writing, I am not sure if these three variants are all the possibilities, or if it is possible to build unoptimized native generic binaries from source for other hardware like mipsel, armel, etc..
