How to determine available snap version on a different arch

snapd
1

I an installing a snap (that I do not own) that runs on both amd64 and other architectures. I would like to know what the status of that snap is on arm64 without having to go and find some arm64 hardware (or VMs) simply to run snap info <snap>.

Is there any way to do that currently?

I believe you are supposed to be able to use UBUNTU_STORE_ARCH=arm64 but that doesn’t seem to be affecting snap find to me… That env var does work when you go to download a snap however

You can also look at the store listing and click on “Show Architecture” to see if there are other architectures available.

Thanks @ijohnson, being able to switch snap download is actually closer to what I was looking for!
