New comment by Hoshpak on void-packages repository https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/pull/15086#issuecomment-538457579 Comment: This way autogen.sh will execute configure without our configure_args before the actual configure step of the build process. Usually, running autogen.sh with `NOCONFIGURE=1` set will prevent that. The autogen script also misses autopoint when cross-compiling which is part of gettext-devel so it seems this package is needed in hostmakedepends to cross-build.
