   The history here is that right after the 9.6 release I upgraded a cluster on 
my M1 Mac to the new version, but got some strange errors, Solr would not 
start, but threw some weird low-level JDK IO exception. I spend quite some time 
before realizing that due to some serious delays before Docker builders built 
the arm64 images, Docker on my M1 mac decided to insteal pull the armv7 32-bit 
images that fail due to 64/32 bit mismatch. Worse, even after the arm64 images 
became available, Docker would NOT pull those automatically until I deleted the 
faulty image or force-pulled the new.
   
   I can imagine that the same would happen on some ARM based cloud server if 
it happened to auto upgrade immediately after a release announcement, but 
before the arm64 image was built (this can take 12+ hours).
   
   I was not aware we even build a 32 bit image. And I cannot imagine what 
system would run Solr on such a chip. Some old RasPI perhaps, although nowdays 
even smaller systems are 64 bit, no?
   
   Remember that Docker binary images is a convenience release and the 
supported architectures are clearly labeled on HUB, so we havent taken anything 
way or broken any promise, other than perhaps it is surprising to potential 
32-bit users that support disappears in a minor release. Also, users can build 
whatever support they like using the Dockerfile we publish. Do you think we 
should do an ANNOUNCE type email about this?
