Hi.

Jolla released SFOS for Xperia 10 II few months ago. On this device just aarch64 applications may be used. It would be great to provide aarch64 build of this great IRC client in harbour/openrepos.

I don't understand why? Doesn't the OS have multilib support for running 32-bit apps?

Nope unfortunately. It is possible to run armv7 binaries on aarch64 variant of Sailfish OS (I tried it with statically linked Busybox), but it does not include 32 bit userspace libraries. It is understandable more or less. Because it would create another surface for bugs and would increase size of the system image almost twice... There is thread about armv7 support on Sailfish OS forum.

To be honest though, I don't personally use Sailfish anymore so I'm not really motivated, but perhaps @Thaodan would be willing to do the work?
