Package: qemu-user-static
Version: 1:7.2+dfsg-5
Severity: normal
I got a new arm64 host at Hetzner, and needed an amd64 chroot in it.
Of course that's easy, since debootstrap --arch just works for foreign
arches with qemu-user-static installed.
root@sparrow:/tmp>apt-get install debootstrap qemu-user-static
root@sparrow:/tmp>debootstrap --arch amd64 sid sid
...
W: Failure trying to run: chroot "/tmp/sid" /bin/true
W: See /tmp/sid/debootstrap/debootstrap.log for details
root@sparrow:/tmp>tail -1 /tmp/sid/debootstrap/debootstrap.log
chroot: failed to run command '/bin/true': Exec format error
Oops, so it doesn't just work. Some digging in the postinst revealed
I needed binfmt-support installed, and it was not installed. I think
because qemu-user-static Recommends: systemd | binfmt-support
and of course I have systemd installed.
If systemd by itself is supposed to somehow handle what binfmt-support
does, it did not work in my case. I had to install binfmt-support
and rerun /var/lib/dpkg/info/qemu-user-static.postinst to fix the
problem.

IIRC, systemd added triggers for /usr/lib/binfmt.d/ in a version
after bullseye one.
systemd (251.2-1) unstable; urgency=medium
* Add dpkg file trigger for systemd-binfmt to update binfmt registrations
This stuff works just fine on bookworm or with systemd from
bullseye-backports. This is why I haven't bothered adding my
own triggers.
I guess this can be closed as fixed in version 251.2-1 :)
So let's close this one finally, now once bookworm is released.
Thanks,
