how would apt know if or if not these binaries can run on any x86_64 linux ? to support such a use-case of being able to install distro independent software (proprietary or not) snap packages were created ... if you have such an rpm with statically compiled binaries inside i'd rather suggest to invest the few minutes it takes to create a snapcraft.yaml to quickly roll a snap package of this software than to put unexpected (and broken by design) functionality into apt. ciao oli
