It was nearly a decade ago when the first RISCV64 port was started for Debian, reports Phoronix. But one of the big features planned for Debian 13.0 (planned for 9 August) is supporting RISC-V as an official CPU architecture.

Those wishing to learn more about this current state of Debian for RISC-V can see the PDF slide deck from DebConf25.
