Arch uses a rolling release. Is there a particular reason get_platform_os() is even called in the installer other than to determine the OS? I don't see the OS release/version itself used anywhere for Linux.

How can I install v3, being that Arch has no version (and outright fails the if/else in the installer)?

Note that this same issue would present for other users of rolling distros (Fedora Rawhide, SuSE Tumbleweed, etc.).
