[Debian-med-packaging] Bug#925499: bowtie2 arm64 (aarch64) package

[Michael Crusoe]

Hello Jun,

Thank you for your report and for your work to improve the architecture
support on several projects!

I think this is a good idea for after the "buster" release. Could you
prepare a pull request at https://salsa.debian.org/med-team/bowtie2 and we
can merge it then?

Alternatively we could do a build in the experimental suite, and then you
could test building all the packages that have a build-time or run-time
dependency on bowtie2 under aarch64. I have a feeling that we may need to
adjust some (many?) other packages which is why I advocate for this to wait
for the next release cycle. If it goes well, then we could backport the
adjustments (or propose for the "buster.1" point release).

$ apt-cache rdepends bowtie2
bowtie2
Reverse Depends:
  ariba
  unicycler
  trinityrnaseq
 |tophat
  srst2
  rsem
  python-pbalign
  pbalign
  paleomix
  metaphlan2-data
  metaphlan2
  giira
  gasic

Cheers,
