Flatpak run org.blender.Blender on ARM chromebook has wrong architecture

Site Help and Feedback

It appears that all the binaries in this package are not for the architecture that the package was made for.

I have done (Debian 11 under Chrome-OS):

$ sudo flatpak install flathub org.blender.Blender
  # success

$ flatpak run org.blender.Blender 
/app/bin/blender: line 3: /app/blender/blender: cannot execute binary file: Exec format error

When I do this,

$ flatpak info org.blender.Blender

I get

Blender - Free and open source 3D creation suite

After some search, I found that the libraries that come with the flatpak image still have the x86-64 architecture:

I have requested these builds be removed

There is no Blender flatpak for aarch64.

I am sorry - this message is a bit contradictory to me. Do you now plan to support aarch64 for blender 3.2.1 flatpak, or to remove the support? I just tried to reinstall it, but flatpak run org.blender.Blender still gives me “exec format error”. It would be good if flatpak install gave me a message saying that this image is not supported on this architecture, and refused to install it.

There is no Blender flatpak for aarch64 at the moment. It shouldn’t have been installable and that the error I mentioned. No amount of trying to reinstall this will change this.
