# - tuba fails trying to invoke the aarch64 gettext during build
# - rpm (wanted by dtrx, but technically optional) fails during configure; can't find python
# - portfolio fails during meson configure; finds host python, can't execute it
# - playerctl fails during install; tries to run `playerctl-scan` (for building docs? should be easy fix)
# - neovim-ruby fails; tries to run host ruby
# - luajit fails; tries to run the host gcc

# outstanding issues for software i don't have deployed:
# - gdk-pixbuf doesn't generate `gdk-pixbuf-thumbnailer` on cross
# - been this way since 2018: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gdk-pixbuf/-/merge_requests/20>
# - as authored upstream, thumbnailer depends on loader.cache, and neither are built during cross compilation.
