Description:

I am attempting to pull the new gemma4:31b-coding-mtp-bf16 model on a Linux system with NVIDIA hardware. Since this is a standard architecture, it should pull and run via CUDA.

Actual Behavior:

The pull fails immediately with:

$ ollama pull gemma4:31b-coding-mtp-bf16
pulling manifest 
Error: pull model manifest: 412: this model requires macOS

$ ollama --version
ollama version is 0.23.1
