summary

Describes how Debian/Ubuntu built an arm64 port of ~18,000 source packages by making the process repeatable and largely automated using multiarch support, cross-compilation tools, dependency-analysis tooling and packaging infrastructure. Explains the two years of work on multiarch, cross-tools, dependency-analysis and packaging to enable automated bootstrapping, and discusses arm64-specific challenges like lack of available hardware and the port’s current status.
