Is there anything I could do to help? I have little to no experience with these kinds of things but maybe this is a fine jumping off point.

And thank you for the correction, I wasn't aware it was case sensitive (or a meme for that matter).

Thanks!

I tried to start a basic SOF package (attached), but quickly ran into ‘The GNU C library is currently unavailable for this platform.’ Without a cross-libc the build fails, looking for , which AFAICT is provided (only) by libc. I've never cross-compiled firmware before so I don't know any next steps. Of course, this being ostensibly libre software, we could package prebuilt binaries[0] as I'm sure 99% of users actually use. It's not a good option, and hardly Guixy, but not unprecedented. Kind regards, T G-R [0]: https://github.com/thesofproject/sof-bin/
