There is something that spells "some members of the ARM family": $ dpkg-architecture -aarm -iany-arm && echo yes || echo no yes $ dpkg-architecture -aarmel -iany-arm && echo yes || echo no yes $ dpkg-architecture -aarmhf -iany-arm && echo yes || echo no yes It it doesn't match arm64 though. $ dpkg-architecture -aarm64 -iany-arm && echo yes || echo no no The common fallacy is that the "foo" in "any-foo" is the name of a Debian architecture while in fact it is the name of the CPU which is mapped to one or more Debian architectures by /usr/share/dpkg/triplettable This is even done wrongly by apt itself.
