I built it locally on hardware, it built fine just by enabling the architecture in debian/control, no other changes needed. In fact, there doesn't seem to be fundamental reasons for this package to be restricted to specific architectures, so perhaps it should just be set to "any". the KiCad applications are using a small derived library from the Boost project which is included and shipped within the source of kicad. https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/-/tree/master/thirdparty/libcontext As I'm seeing now support for riscv64 was added in January 2022, so applying your suggested modification will work. But switching the Architecture field to any will not work. I'm absolutely fine with adding riscv64 as additional supported architecture, I'm expecting at least one more release of the current stable 6.x branch before the hard freeze of bookworm will start. If things getting late I'll upload another version of 6.0.9 with the riscv64 architecture before. -- Regards Carsten
