 Thanks for the PR!
 
 I read your blog post, and found:
 
 > pkg_add: libnbcompat-20250303: warning: was built for a different platform: pkg_add: AIX/powerpc64 7.2 (pkg) vs. AIX/powerpc64 2 (this host)
 
 Can you please provide the outputs of:
 - pkg_info -Q OS_VERSION  some-binary-package.tgz
   # should be 7.2
 - uname -r
   # same
 - gcc -o uname uname.c; ./uname
   # this is the interesting part
 
 after saving the attachment as uname.c?
 
 Thanks,
  Thomas
