If not, I am amazed that someone managed to build a binary on armv7l that works on armv6l.
I was pretty sure the devs didn't use any armv7 specific instructions so it should work - just tested the binary on a pi model b and it works fine.
Regarding the static build it would be the easiest way to run dmd on most arm boxes - even kodi can run a node despite it doesn't let you install libraries.
Thanks for testing it on the older Pi.

I am currently busy with Qt5 on Pi as a pet project and once that is sorted it will have to be static builds for the GUI wallet because I could not find any readily available libraries for Qt5 on Pi and I had to compile it natively (almost 2 days). Agreed that if someone just buys a Pi for staking a wallet or two on it, then static builds will be fine.
