[DRAFT] Legacy CPU support for Intel/AMD pre-2011 (AVX-free builds)#42
Conversation
- Add whisper-libs-legacy target with disabled AVX/AVX2/FMA instructions
- Add build-systray-legacy and appimage-legacy targets
- Add docker-appimage-legacy for containerized legacy builds
- Force clean rebuild for legacy to ensure compatibility
- Use GCC flags -mno-avx -mno-avx2 -mno-fma -mno-f16c for whisper.cpp
This addresses SIGILL crashes on older CPUs that don't support
modern vector instruction sets while maintaining optimized builds
for newer hardware.
