Ok so far so good. Here is where I run into a problem.
W: Failed to fetch

find expected entry 'main/binary-ppc64/Packages' in Release file
(Wrong sources.list entry or malformed file)

The (In)Release files don't have listings for ppc64 packages, only
ppc64el. I found two mirrors with those listings and edited the
sources.list file. However it's still looking in the wrong place.

That InRelease file has no ppc64/Packages listing but this Release
file does http://mirror.techfak.uni-bielefeld.de/debian-ports/debian/dists/sid/Release
A bit confused at the moment...
