It used to work two weeks before:

 https://travis-ci.com/huth/qemu/jobs/244124599#L484

I guess there was an update to a different version and they removed the
package from arm64 now...?

Seems like this arm64 builder is still a moving target (it has been
announced as alpha software IIRC), so I think we should not include this
patch yet.
