Bug#1070815: libdrm-intel1 should be compiled for arm64
Package: libdrm-intel1
Version: 2.4.120-2
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch

Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation?
I recently got an Ampere Altra board and I've decided to try getting
Intel Arc 750 working on it. While that requires vendor-specific kernel
patches (Workaround for Altra's PCIe Errata) and recent kernel
(6.9.0-rc6 with drm-next/xe), I managed to get it working.
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
One of the obstacles I had, was that libdrm-intel1 is not compiled on
arm64 systems in debian (testing or unstable or experimental). Upstream
actually have nothing that prevents you from compiling it and only
requires to add arm64 in control for libdrm-intel1.
* What was the outcome of this action?
I've actually managed to build libdrm-intel1 on aarch64.
