Research direction

Start by reviewing the compose-switch entry points and build or release configuration for supported architectures. Reproduce the reported environment with uname -m on a Raspberry Pi or equivalent armv7l system, then verify that the resulting compose-switch binary runs there. Done means armv7l is supported and the relevant build or release checks pass.
