11/12/2021, 6:56 PMHello! Pants 2.5+ supports macOS ARM, which laid the foundation for Linux ARM support.
You've probably seen https://github.com/pantsbuild/pants/issues/12183. https://github.com/pantsbuild/pants/pull/12879 kicked off some of that work
That wouldn't land until Pants 2.9 at the earliest though, and would be extremely non-trivial to backport to Pants 1. Are y'all using Pants v1 for Python, or for other languages too?
