I’m trying to install GDC on a new Linux box and I don’t know

and have installed GDC on a Raspberry Pi using 32-bit ARM.
For some reason the apt-get command doesn’t work on this
machine, don’t know why. The machine is a virtual server
hosted on the internet and I can get support for the o/s.
What is the recommended procedure for fetching the x86-64
prec-compiled GDC?
Check the web about reprex and write what have you tried to
run, which error you got, some more information about the
system, root rights.
Have you tried to download deb package manually and use dpkg
command?
I think the problem might have been that I did apt-get not apt
and I was not running as root, just now I elevated with sudo and
ran apt -y install gdc and that worked so by fumbling about I
appear to have solved it.
That was the x86-64 box. I haven’t been able to install GDC on my
Apple M2 ARM Aarch64 Mac though, no idea how to find it for OSX
Aarch64.
