What

Adds arm64 to the google-chrome external repo mirror — ARCH=amd64ARCH=amd64:arm64.

Why

Google now publishes google-chrome-stable for arm64 alongside amd64 in its apt repo (dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb). Verified against the live repo:

  • dists/stable/ReleaseArchitectures: amd64 arm64
  • binary-arm64/Packagesgoogle-chrome-stable present, same version as amd64 (151.0.7922.137-1 at time of writing)

So Chrome can now be mirrored/installed on arm64 desktop images, not just amd64.

Change

-ARCH=amd64
+ARCH=amd64:arm64

(Chrome ships only amd64 + arm64 on Linux — no armhf/riscv64 — so those two are the complete set.) Everything else (repo URL, google-chrome-stable package, version glob >= 124.0, desktop target, aptly method, BS repository) is unchanged.

Google now publishes google-chrome-stable for arm64 alongside amd64 in
its apt repo (dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb); the stable Release lists
"Architectures: amd64 arm64" and both ship the same version
(151.0.7922.137-1 at time of writing). Mirror arm64 too so Chrome is
available on arm64 desktop images, not just amd64.
