@jabedzaman How did you created a new app? Are you using this command: npx @react-native-community/cli init <app_name>. Also provide a valid reproducer.

yesss!!! tried with init command only + not the older cli tool too!! And this error only comes on arm linux not on x86 ones.. the same code runs properly on apple arm and other x86 machines

@jabedzaman Have you tried compiling normal Android gradle projects? I tried setting up a Raspberry Pi to be used as a CI some time back, but realised that a lot of tools used in the build pipeline don't support ARM64. Maybe its a similar reason for you?

maybe yea i switched to x86 and everything is working fine again... but yea i do need a solution for builds on arm cause my main vps is using a arm cpu

as far as i know and based on my previous experimentation, the only real solution is to setup qemu and emulate x86 on arm64, however ymmv accordingly regarding performance.
