32 bit no longer supported

[RustyPotato]

Hello,

Reading through the documentation, it mentions

While Lychee works on 32bit systems, we strongly recommend the use of a 64bit OS.

Installation.md Line 45

However, while attempting to load this project onto my machine, it failed at the composer step since it now depends on zipstream-php version 3.x.x. As of their update to 3.x.x, they now made it a requirement that it runs on 64bit machines (docs), and so Lychee by extension has to obey that.

I'd recommend removing that line and instead writing in it's place that this needs to be run on 64bit machines.

Now time for me to either try downgrading Lychee or finding a different software. Thank you for your great project.

Crap :(

Well it is at least 2 years old that is it breaking:

I am going to transfer that to Lychee and see what I can do.

Oh, I didn't actually expect you to support 32bit machines, I know I'm the far minority trying to run things on a 2001 Dell Optiplex.

It's fine to just support 64bit machines, it's usually easier and less of a pain for development. And the longer that requirement stays in place, the further out of date libraries might get. So I'd say be 64, just document it as such.

It is actually just a corner of the implementation, lemme just give a try.
The thing, is that it is only impacting the download, so I am pretty sure that even if you were using all the other files of Lychee, it would still be working.

Just that zip download would break.
