A few things that I am still confused about:
- What are all the variables supposed to expand to under this PEP? I assume that most of them would be pointing to the target’s values? How do we interrogate the system’s environment if needed?
- This PEP is primarily aimed at introspecting the cross-compilation environment within a python environment, such as for PEP517 python native builders?
- What about
python3-config? I presume that that should point to the target’s environment, but should stuff likepython3-config --prefixpoint to the staging locations or the installed paths?
As far as I’ve tried the crossenv approach, it is actually working quite nicely. I presume that with this PEP, it would be compatible with that approach?
