+### Workaround for non **amd64** / **aarch64**
+`regctl` provides binaries for amd64/aarch64, to use on other architecture you could try this workaround.
+Run regctl in a contianer wrapped in a shell script. Copied from [regclient/docs/install.md](https://github.com/regclient/regclient/blob/main/docs/install.md):
+
+```sh
+cat >regctl <<EOF
+#!/bin/sh
+opts=""
+case "\$*" in
+  "registry login"*) opts="-t";;
+esac
+docker container run \$opts -i --rm --net host \\

+  -v /etc/docker/certs.d:/etc/docker/certs.d:ro \\
+  ghcr.io/regclient/regctl:latest "\$@"
+EOF
+chmod 755 regctl
+```
+Test it with `./regctl --help` and then either add the file to the same path as *dockcheck.sh* or in your path (eg. `~/.local/bin/regctl`).

 ## `dc_brief.sh`
 Just a brief, slimmed down version of the script to only print what containers got updates, no updates or errors.
