+qemu and gdb for Power 64 are required.  qemu can be installed with
+"apt-get install qemu-system-ppc64", however gdb needs compiling from
+source.  Obtain the latest tarball, unpack it, then:
+
+    cd gdb-9.1 (or other location)
+    mkdir build
+    cd build
+     ../configure --srcdir=.. --host=x86_64-linux --target=powerpc64-linux-gnu
+    make -j16
+    make install
+
+You will need to have installed the powerpc gnu gcc cross-compiler for
+this to work:
+
+    apt-get install gcc-9-powerpc64-linux-gnu
