error: could not compile `wasmtime-runtime`

I read on other places on the internet that wasmtime-runtime can't be compiled for arm, but they don't say either that substrate can't be compiled for arm so I don't really understand did you have this problem ?

I'm getting the same as @CyberDuck79. Any news on this?
