ASL3 install on existing RPi (Raspbian)?

TLDR: Has anybody actually been successful in adding ASL3 to an existing Raspbian install?

Background:
I've been reading existing posts and have not found anybody who was successful in an add-on installation (not appliance build-SD chip and boot from it) to an existing Raspberry PI (in my case a 2B). I'm currently running the PiDP application and usually >80% idle. Rather than installing yet another piece of hardware, I'd like to use the existing...

I tried playing with the Debian (yes, I know, not exactly the same Distro) but got the following:
asl3 : Depends: asl3-asterisk but it is not installable
Depends: bind9-dnsutils but it is not installable
Depends: dahdi-dkms (>= 3.4.0-6) but it is not going to be installed

When I try installing the individual components, I get further errors like:
Package asl3-asterisk is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source

E: Package 'asl3-asterisk' has no installation candidate

Thanks!

ASL3 will not run on a Raspberry Pi 2 B. You need a 64-bit capable CPU/OS.

I was able to create the SD-install version and run with it. But I'm trying to multi-purpose the RPI I have.

You aren't going to be successful with anything other than a supported Pi and Debian 12 (Raspian12). The Pi 2B is an 'armhf' platform that's only 32-bit. The packages are only supported and built for 64-bit 'aarch64' platforms.
