recently i bought a raspberry pi 5 with 4 gb
it is gpio i am interested in, i want to use it for switching things on and off
i made a simple c++ program with sfml and gpiod
and i was happy when it all compiled

But when i started the program i got the message that the system was not raspberry pi
see below
