I can reproduce the error when installing our "manylinux" wheel on Arch Linux. When I build and install from source `makeotfexe` works fine without any cmake configuration changes. Did you...

I'm just trying to piece this together. You're saying you built the repo for Linux on ARM and it didn't work, and then you added some pthread-related stuff to the...
