Issue

I'm trying to build docker images of our tools for both amd64 and arm64 platforms. slycot is one of our dependencies and would appreciate support for linux/arm64 via conda-forge.

@conda-forge/arm-arch, Following the advice of https://conda-forge.org/docs/maintainer/knowledge_base.html#using-arch-rebuild-txt, I created conda-forge/conda-forge-pinning-feedstock#5203 which was merged last week, but I don't see any effect. Are we missing something?

If you look at the status migrator you can see a dependency chain:

• qt-webengine
• pyqt
• slycot

I think the challenge is that anything that depends on qt-webengine is having trouble getting past the fact that ppc64le is not supported and aarch + ppc64le are interlinked.

@conda-forge-admin please rerender

Hi! This is the friendly automated conda-forge-webservice.

I just wanted to let you know that I started rerendering the recipe in conda-forge/slycot-feedstock#68.

The really strange thing, is that slycot doesn't depend on qt at all. could there be an other package called slycot?

• We use the Qt-Backend of matplotlib for the unit tests in the python-control CI. But that should not be of any concern for the conda-forge recipes.
• python-control itself is noarch.

Where do I see the status migrator?
