Current evaluation

Fixed in merged canonical/snapcraft#4150 (commit 77d3454d): core22 snap.yaml now records build-for (all) instead of the build-on architecture.

Resolution: closed resolved

Reason: The defect was fixed by merged PR canonical/snapcraft#4150, committed as 77d3454d. The change makes snap.yaml use build-for, so all-architecture builds emit all rather than amd64.

Issue body

Originally reported by @zyga in the snapcrafters chat. "architecture independent snaps are broken on core22, build-on amd64 build-for all makes the snap _all_ in name and amd64 in the yaml"

qwen/qwen3.6-35b-a3b — — Closed without a documented fix. The report indicated core22 builds targeting all architectures incorrectly populated amd64 in snap.yaml instead of all, breaking architecture-independent snaps.
qwen/qwen3.6-35b-a3b — — Abandoned. Reported incorrect architecture mapping in core22 snap.yaml for architecture-independent snaps, where build-for all incorrectly set the architecture to amd64.
qwen/qwen3.6-35b-a3b — — Closed without resolution or comments, indicating abandonment. Architecture-independent core22 snaps incorrectly set the architecture to amd64 in snap.yaml when build-for was set to all.
qwen3.6-35b-a3b-mtp-q6 — — Abandoned. Closed without comments or resolution. The core22 snap.yaml architecture mismatch for multi-arch builds remains unaddressed.

#1881515 Snapcraft pulling wrong arch of debs when building foreign snaps snapcraft (launchpad) closed Reported --target-arch pulling wrong debs for foreign arch builds. Maintainers noted the feature was broken and disabled for core20. Marked resolved as cross-builds have been significantly improved in recent Snapcraft versions.

#2007789 `snapcraft remote-build` does not support long syntax of the `architectures` top-level key. snapcraft (launchpad) closed Fixed by migrating `snapcraft remote-build` to the core22 implementation, which correctly parses the long `architectures` syntax.

#1862256 snapcraft should complain loudly when building base: core20 snap on i386 snapcraft (launchpad) closed Closed as superseded: improved architecture parsing rejects unsupported core20/i386 builds, making a dedicated check unnecessary; snapcraft#4392 improved this handling.
