Research direction
Start by reading ppm_has_binaries(), ppm_platforms(), and ppm_binary_url(), then compare their current behavior with the PPM Linux ARM URL format described in the issue. Use the provided multi-platform Docker image for the R development environment. Done means Linux ARM and existing Linux platforms resolve the correct PPM metadata and binary URLs.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
I looked into it but gave up -- too many things that need changing, I presume:
ppm_has_binaries()returnsTRUE✅ppm_platforms()gets a new columnarch✅- the
"arm64"values returned by PPM are translated to"aarch64"🤙
- the
ppm_binary_url()uses the new format"https://p3m.dev/cran/latest/bin/linux/noble-4.5/aarch64"instead of"https://p3m.dev/cran/latest/bin/linux/4.5-noble"🤷♂️- anything else?
I have a Docker image that can be used in a devcontainer setup with R and all dependencies installed, multi-platform: https://github.com/cynkra/docker-images/pkgs/container/docker-images%2Fubuntu24-rig-rrel-dc-dt-pkgcache .
