Cannot install on new install of Arch system about miniforge

[hmaarrfk]

Is there a way for us to do this for miniforge? A single installer for Unix flavors, that unpacks what it needs?

That would be to sweet

@hameerabbasi aarch64 is the ARM64 installer, I think you want the linux-x86_64 installer instead.

🤦‍♂️ You're right. I'll show myself out. I don't know what prompted me to do that.

[hmaarrfk]

It happens.

Apple did a really amazing job combining binaries for 32 bit and 64 bit to avoid this problem.

I think they are doing the same for their new arm binaries.

I think they are doing the same for their new arm binaries.

Yeah that's my understanding as well.

No idea. Probably with changes to constructor. Though it will result in larger installer sizes. Do you have a use case for this?

[hmaarrfk]

The case for unified binaries is clear:

1. End users have a single package to install, no matter their platform.
2. At the exchange of a larger download file.

For miniforge, we actually don't have that much to duplicate.
