If you are using sbuild, you can simply add --host=$somearch to your invocation. If you are using pbuilder, you can simply add --host-arch $somearch to your invocation. There is no need for extra chroots or like that. Just those extra options. After your upload, you can check http://crossqa.debian.net/src/hercules to see the results of the autobuilder. Beware that the service presently has a noticeable backlog, so it may take a few days to build your package (unless you schedule it yourself). Also be aware that since gcc-10 presently FTBFS on x86, cross building on x86 in unstable tends to not work. At the time of this writing, you can still cross build from amd64 to mips64el, because mips64el didn't finish building gcc-10 yet. After that, a testing chroot may be needed. The crossqa page tells you which hosts work with amd64 at any given time. In case you have further questions, don't hesitate to ask. Helmut
