I suspect it was because there were some tests which are just for amd64 and

Those tests in particular should word on linux/arm64 at least too.
Thank you for your inputs . I think then we shall modify this to skip
the tests exclusively on ppc64le as of now. That way, this should allows
to execute tests on another archs.
Further, I got one more issue in the dh_auto_install stage because of
multiple package names within the same folder, so it throws this error.
That's deliberate, the ppc64le is an experimental port that doesn't build
except if the exp.linuxppc64le flag is passed to go build. However we've had
a passing builder in CI for a while and I don't see any important tests
being skipped for ppc64le so you could send a PR to us to remove the flag,
you have to remove the clause that says !(ppc64le && exp.linuxppc64le) from
support_sentinel_linux.go
yeah, correct. I understand that exp.linuxppc64le was introduced as an
experimental build tag for |ppc64le.|I’ve looked into the suggestion of
removing the |!(ppc64le && exp.linuxppc64le)| clause from
|support_sentinel_linux.go|.
That said, I’m trying to better understand the practical impact of
removing this clause. Additionally, even with this clause removed, I’m
still encountering the same build error on |ppc64le|. Got the below
error after removing the clause. Is there any other place where the
build tag might still be enforced?
