> Luke, do you want gcc-9-powerpc64-linux-gnu installed inside of the chroot?

for coriolis2? we have no reason to compile executables (yet).

yeah that's not a good idea.  the coriolis2 chroot absolutely has to be
a reproducible build.  debian/testing is the absolute opposite of that.

> something that I presume is trivial in the chroot, 

it's trivial on both, however the results would be absolute disaster.
i do not know if you have ever tried to compile software on a moving
target, it is absolute hell.

if we absolutely have to install gcc for powerpc in the chroot, it would
be better to do so from a full source code build.
