Hmm, I just realized that building the cross-compiler for ia64 is disabled at the moment because we were having issues with libunwind back then. But normally, on Debian and Ubuntu, you can just install the compiler with: # apt install gcc-8-$ARCH-linux-gnu And that should also be the case for ia64, hence I will look into fixing this as it should have been long time ago.
