Because I am lacking hardware and feedback, the arm64 packaging is a
rather theoretical exercise. At least for armhf I thought qemu-system-x86
was a dependency. That binary should provide x86 emulation on arm64, the
same as one could install qemu for other arches on x86.
Have you tried to install qemu-system-x86 manually?

Thanks for your inputs, I have installed the qemu-system-i386 but my DomU
booting is still crashing with following short logs. Am I missing anything
?
