[SOLVED]: Debian/Ubuntu number of packages for different architectures (arm64 vs amd64)

Summary:

Number of packages for Ubuntu Jammy (22.04) AMD64 = 67626

Number of packages for Ubuntu Jammy (22.04) ARM64 = 65776 (97%)

(this includes basic repositories, such as main, multiverse, restricted, universe)

How did I count it:

# amd64

for line in `curl -s http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/jammy/Release | grep "Packages$" | grep -i amd64 | awk '{print $3}' | sort | uniq`;

do

        echo -n "$line";

        #echo "http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/jammy/${line}.gz"

        curl -s "http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/jammy/${line}.gz" |zcat | grep "Package:" | wc -l

done

# arm64

for line in `curl -s http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/jammy/Release | grep "Packages$" | grep -i arm64 | awk '{print $3}' | sort | uniq`;

do

        echo -n  "$line";

        #echo "http://ports.ubuntu.com/dists/jammy/${line}.gz"

        curl -s "http://ports.ubuntu.com/dists/jammy/${line}.gz" |zcat | grep "Package:" | wc -l

done
