So much about this confuses me. What do Kitty and ncurses have to do with ROCm? Why is this being built with GCC instead of clang? Why even bother building it yourself when the tarballs are so good and easy to work with?

On the last one: OP said they were trying to get it working for a musl toolchain, so the tarballs are probably not useful to them (I assume they're built for glibc).

Agreed on the others though. Why's it even installing ncurses, surely that's just expected to be on the system?

The analysis was AI generated. This was Claude brute-forcing itself through building a library.
