Build chain problem, not an ARM one. That said, this is THE WORST problem. Having to recompile all dependencies to a platform target just so your own Makefile will build.

I feel like distros have an obligation to cross compile all packages for x86 and arm in their own build chains. That’s ultimately where this problem lies. You can’t apt install the dependencies you need to make install your thing.

The point is this is a problem you have on ARM. Your choices are select ARM, have this problem, or didn't select ARM and don't have this problem.
