I;ve created a separate venv to install printrun, I does not work either.

So in that venv, I've done a git clone of printrun. Then after that, it 
appears there is
no such critter as a wxPython.whl for the arms, only x86_64's. So whats 
the diff if it
run ok on a pi, or claims it does. I don't have a spare rpi4b and they 
are equ to teeth
for a chicken ATM.

What, on the arms, substitutes for the missing "*.whl" file?
