Step 2 of installer PLAN.md §5.2. The shard dials the sidecar out on
loopback, so wherever ServUO runs this binary has to run too -- and
Ampere/Graviton instances and Pi-class boxes are a realistic ServUO
home. Until now the release cross-compiled x86_64 Linux and Windows
only, so the installer refused every arm64 host by name.
Cross-compiling this crate is not Rust-only: sqlx's sqlite feature
pulls libsqlite3-sys, which compiles bundled SQLite from C. The build
therefore needs a CC/AR pair as well as a linker, the same shape the
Windows step already has.
libc6-dev-arm64-cross is named explicitly because gcc-aarch64-linux-gnu
only recommends it and this install passes --no-install-recommends: with
the compiler alone, SQLite's build dies on
/usr/include/stdio.h:27: fatal error: bits/libc-header-start.h
Both the failure and the fix were reproduced in a rust:1-slim-bookworm
container against this crate before the workflow was written.
The new binary is added to SHA256SUMS and to the upload list. Every
artifact has to appear in both: the installer verifies its download
against those sums, and `sha256sum -c` passes silently over a file the
sums list does not mention.
Merge order matters -- installer#9 teaches the bundle CI this asset
name, and must land first. An unrecognized link asset is a hard failure
there, by design, so a release published before it would redden the
compose job.
