Blender for arm64

I am using a Raspberry Pi 4B with Ubuntu 22.04. I am trying to install blender using snap but got the following error message.

$ sudo snap install blender --classic error: snap “blender” is not available on stable for this architecture (arm64) but exists on other architectures (amd64).

Could the snap team please support blender on the arm64 platform?

Hi ! @fckwan .

You can add the architecture amd64 by executing this command :

sudo dpkg --add-architecture amd64

This is not correct, even for apps installed from .deb files (using dpkg). This one line does no magic to make amd64 apps run on arm64 architecture.

An arm64 snap must be created and uploaded to the store, as requested by the OP.

@BlenderRelease any chance you can add builds for arm64?

Okay I see.

@alexmurray Hi. Sergey from Blender here. Currently we do not have resources to provide official support for arm64 on Linux from our side. It is probably something we’ll be looking into in the future, but currently it is not planned yet.
