Hello,

Upstream doesn't support mips or s390x, and the ppcle64 support is
unofficial.

https://numba.readthedocs.io/en/stable/user/installing.html

Honestly I think their supporting for arm64 started catching up to
amd64 due to apple's new laptops.

Is there a way to build the other architectures to see how they're
doing but only release numba on amd64 and arm64? I'm not sure how
reliable it would be on anything else.

It's doing a lot of tricky code generation llvm so it will always
struggle with less common architectures.

Diane
