Geoserver Docker images for ARM (arm64/v8) from docker.osgeo.org?

Hi my beloved FOSSGIS community

Am I observing it correctly, that
Geoserver-Docker images from docker.osgeo.org/geoserver:2.25.x are single-arch, and only run on “amd64” architecture, but not on “arm64”

Docker compose tells me:

The requested image’s platform (linux/amd64) does not match the detected host platform (linux/arm64/v8) and no specific platform was requested

And running the docker images crashes with:

exec /usr/bin/bash: exec format error

So, if no arm-images are provided, my next question would be: Any plans to do so?
I think it should be not too hard, with something like:

docker buildx build --platform "linux/amd64,linux/arm64

Many greetings from Tübingen,
Steve

I do not see any ticket in the issue tracker, so there are no plans in place.

If you are comfortable with Dockr, please make a pull request here: GitHub - geoserver/docker: GeoServer docker image

There is one script responsible for building: build/release.sh

I do not claim any great dockr experience but I would be happy to test.

Thanks Jody for pointing me to the right direction.

But besides the PR, the docker daemon of the build system will have to be configured for multi-platform: Multi-platform | Docker Docs
