    Description

      Currently, the installer is build for x86 only. Thanks to Rosetta translation layer, x86 binaries can be run on M1 Macs as well. However, when Apple stops supporting Rosetta, we need to have ARM builds for Installer and IFW as well. 

      As a consequence, Qt 5.15.x versions, on which installer/IFW are based, must be built for Mac/ARM as well.
