Hello, Here's an example:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- $ guix build --target=aarch64-linux-gnu python-coverage guix build: error: gnu/packages/check.scm:1997:2: [email protected]: build system `python' does not support cross builds --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- Python byte compiled files are not architecture dependents, so nothing is needed for them. In some cases where C extensions are used, setuptools or PEP 517 python build systems handle this transparently. So it seems like we should be able to support cross-compiling Python packages easily, which can be useful when building images containing Python packages for embedded systems via cross-compilation. Thoughts? -- Thanks, Maxim
