host-glib is needed for glib-mkenums and glib-genmarshal. Maybe those are
already installed in your system? PTXdist tries to avoid such external
dependencies because different versions of such tools may result in
different target binaries.

Right. I had glib-mkenums and glib-genmarshal already installed and ptxdist was picking those. So the HOST_GLIB part is clear.

I'm not sure if host-orc is still needed. At some point it was necessary
to provided orcc because some files that are generated by orcc where not
shipped in the release tarball or something like that.

I don't have orcc installed though, not sure where this is needed (perhaps for plugins that I am not building).

Thank you,
