That's correct, there is no ARM binary for Windows or Linux desktops. The 
macOS one comes in universal binary form.

The rule of thumb is to always use the Linux distro's packages if they exist, 
or build on the distro and use the distro's supporting libraries in "system" 
mode. Don't use the pre-built binaries for anything but testing. (This is an 
opinion and is not shared with most other Qt developers)
