Hi Jonathan,

probably this warning is the issue.

"dpkg-architecture: warning: specified GNU system type
arm-linux-gnueabihf does not match CC system type x86_64-linux-gnu, try
setting a correct CC environment variable"

The environment variable CC should contain the path to the compiler for
armhf architecture not for amd64 one.

HTH

Kind regards
