@balejk Thanks for the feedback!

You're right; I don't need cmake there. And as for the other prefixes, I think I needed them before I added the `gnuinstall` option, but looks like since I added that it works without them, so I'll remove those

At one point I couldn't get it to build right in xbps for some reason with ninja, but it worked with make. Now though looks like I don't have that same issue anymore, so I'll have it use ninja. 

I briefly tried building for ARM but I ran into a number of issues, and then I read that to get it to compile there, a number of changes need to made. I'm not sure if that is still true, I may need to play around with it more to get it to compile there, but I didn't have it work out of the box and read that it wasn't officially supported so I only listed the officially supported architectures.

I disabled `xrootd` globally because I thought a better solution to ROOT building it would be having it as its own package that ROOT depends on (and thought about throwing that package together), but until there is I'll only disable it for musl (it looks like I need to add the versioned `xrootd` libraries to shlibs for that to work also, so I'll do that). I'm rebuilding on a musl system now with `imt` enabled and the other above changes, so hopefully that will work.

And the R bindings build option would be sensible, so I'll add that as well. 

Once I add the above (and see that the musl compilation works with those changes), I'll force push them.
