PongoOS linker errors:

ld: could not process llvm bitcode object file, because /usr/bin/../lib/llvm/libLTO.so could not be loaded file '/tmp/dtree-76a2ef.o' for architecture arm64
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

ln -s ../llvm-18/lib/libLTO.so libLTO.so nevermind we don't need to build PongoOS

turns out shit's broken af on iOS 15 so project ends here from Siguza:

• https://github.com/asdfugil/PongoOS <- Build that
• https://checkra.in/1337 <- Use this special ver of checkrain
• https://github.com/HoolockLinux/m1n1 <- Chainload thath
