InvalidArchitecture: Architecture ‘armv8l’ is not supported

[sergey-borovkov]

Bug Description

I am trying to build an armhf snap on an aarch64 machine that runs armhf lxc container of Ubuntu.

Getting the error from the title when trying to build the snap:

craft_parts.errors.InvalidArchitecture: Architecture 'armv8l' is not supported.
Make sure the architecture name is correct.

See more details here: https://forum.snapcraft.io/t/invalidarchitecture-architecture-armv8l-is-not-supported/39455

To Reproduce

1. On aarch64 machine that supports running in armhf compatibility mode create lxc image with armhf OS.
2. For architectures field in snapcraft.yaml:

   architectures:
   - build-on: armhf
   build-for: armhf

   This error did happen without specifying the architectures field though.

part yaml

No response
