Let me clarify -- the message goes like this:

So either "What is going to happen?" is a question to recipients of the
email (and I don't know what exactly is being asked), or Domenico meant
do tell what is going to happen, but did not.

The only reason why said app won't work on one of the systems is possibly
binary incompatibility between gcc/libstdc++/libc, which is probably
not what's being discussed.
