To run tests on ppc64 and ppc64el, this patch install cross building packages for both architectures on the Debian image, these packages will be install every time the CI triggered. A proper fix would be to install these packages to the image directly.
I've committed a change based on this patch. I dropped big-endian ppc support for now (the "apt-get remove nettle-dev:$arch" failed because it's not an arch in official debian. Not sure if that was the only problem, but I wanted to get ppc64el working first, before investigating further). And I had to add a dpkg --add-architecture, since that was also missing in the build image.
It would be great if you could prepare a merge request for the image repository. And any advice on what's needed for big-endian ppc, should it work fine to install the cross-compiler packages, despite it not being an official debian arch?
