Friends, I'm trying to compile 2.1.2 on Linux arm64 but having an
issue. I'm wondering if anyone can help please? arm64 is a different
platform than armhf so I can't use the binary package on my Gentoo
system. Target hardware is a Raspberry Pi4B. Thanks

Thanks Bill, it's been a long time since I last used patch files.
Could you please tell me how to apply this?

Bill, ignore my previous,. I remembered how to do it. Compiling now
and past the qt_helper stage.
