When I deploy a delta update, it fails with the following error:

```

Some extra poking around shows:

```

Running “ln -s /lib/ld-linux.so.3 /lib/ld-linux-armhf.so.3” did not solve the issue.

Device type: vexpress-qemu-grub

Any help will be appreciated.

It looks like I might have solved it by changing mender-binary-delta’s interpreter using patchelf

```
patchelf --set-interpreter /lib/ld-linux.so.3 ./mender-binary-delta
```

Interesting. I doubt anyone has tried running this on vexpress-qemu as I think we mostly use qemux86-64 for this testing now.
