Can you please add aarch64 to the supported architectures?

I successfully compiled and tested functionality on Arch Linux ARM 64 bit. Yay gives ugly warnings about the package not compatible with the system architecture, but after telling it to ignore the error, everything works fine.

Edit: after further investigation, the issue seems to be on my side -- I had a site-packages for python3.12 in my .local folder that took precedence, but it was outdated (and probably broken). Apologies for the inconvenience.


The build process seems to assume the existence of the symbol ImpImporter in the module pkgutil, which is not true in Python 3.12. Since the python package is now on version 3.12, it breaks this package.

However, I do have Python 3.11 installed independently on my system. Could it be possible to fall back to that version if it is present? Or, not to depend directly on python since it is incompatible anymore.

Thank you in advance.
