Can't install on ubuntu through parallels on Mac with Apple M1

[cosmikwolf]

Version/Branch:

1.0.0

Operating system:

Ubuntu 22.04

Debug probe:

Jlink plus

Details:

I downloaded the latest .deb file from the releases page, and I tried to install it on my parallels VM running ubuntu 22.04 and I get this error. I haven't ever hit this before, so not sure what to do.

parallels@ubuntu-vm ~> sudo apt install ./MCUViewer-1.0.0-Linux.deb

Hey, I suspect this might be due to the wrong architecture (I currently don't build for arm) could you paste here the output of uname -a command?

[cosmikwolf]

ah yea, I am running on arm, its apple sillicon

Linux ubuntu-vm 5.15.0-119-generic #129-Ubuntu SMP Fri Aug 2 20:37:01 UTC 2024 aarch64 aarch64 aarch64 GNU/Linux

I'll put that on my high priority TODO list and add this architecture to the releases soon. I'll let you know when it's ready to test.

Ehh unfortuantely its not as easy as I thought - there are currently no GitHub aarch64 runners available. It would take too long to cross-compile all dependencies and then maintain them by hand so that I can release also aarch64 binary. If you'd like to try we can work out the compilation process together so that people workin on aarch64 can at least build from source by themselves. Gettting this to work should be pretty straightforward - I already compiled the stlink.a library, just need to add some cmake switches.
