Currently ‘cmake-build-system’ does not support cross-compilation, which is becoming more and more of a problem. For instance, it prevents cross-compilation of Guix:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- $ guix build guix --target=aarch64-linux-gnu -n guix build: error: gnu/packages/ssh.scm:59:2: libssh-0.7.4: build system `cmake' does not support cross builds --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- I think CMake supports cross-compilation in theory, so we should try to implement it.
