we require the host architecture to natively execute the targets
architectures binaries. this is a known and documented limitation of
live-build.
in certain cases, we do support using qemu (e.g. to 'cross' build arm on
i386/amd64), this requires proper qemu/binftm support. in the case of
ppc, this is broken upstream for years, therefore, no value in keeping
the bug open.
