Binaries for linux arm64 , aarch64

Open towe75 opened this issue 3 years ago • 1 comments

We're moving towards AWS graviton instances and want to establish a full CI process there. Part of it is of course a working "please" environment. I was able to clone and bootstrap a binary without problems but i want to ask if we could get prebuilt binaries.

I noticed a recent PR: #2411 I'm unsure about the impact of this PR because i could not find fitting binaries on github, also get.please.build and pleasew are unchanged. Note that the reported arch on graviton (uname -m) is "aarch64" whereas mac/darwin uses "arm64".

Do you have any plans to move forward here? I could help with e.g. pleasew (like back in #2286) and with testing.

This is not a showstopper for use because we can simply compile a binary but it would certainly be simpler for us and others to get a binary and pleasew support.

I can't think of any good reason not to and it seems it could help a few people out. I'd be happy to collaborate on a PR to get this working. We can make pre-releases by adding v16.20.2-beta.1 to the version to test this out.

Coming back to this after a while. Can you maybe give me a few hints where i can contribute changes aside of pleasew?

edit: my bad. I found that #2411 was merged meanwhile and that there is also a pre-build linux arm binary available. But pleasew still tries to download the amd64 version because it only considers arm for darwin. I will open a new issue for this.
