Description

The problem: Kontrol and evm-semantics repo rely on the nix package 'https://github.com/hellwolf/solc.nix'. Which does not support this architecture https://github.com/hellwolf/solc.nix/blob/fbbe5553a7fc52f2d423afac81316023a183e72c/mk-solc-static.nix#L22. This is due to its upstream dependency solc does not support the system aarch64-linux for now.

Wait and check upstream support, maybe 0.8.23 shall support this according to the milestone plan

Research direction

Start by checking the referenced solc.nix mk-solc-static.nix entry and the Solidity milestone 58 for upstream aarch64-linux support. Confirm whether the required solc version supports this system and test the Kontrol or evm-semantics kup install path. Done means system aarch64-linux installation works, or the issue is updated with the current upstream status.
