For Python, we:
1/ Need a host-python whose version matches the one of the target
python being built.
2/ Need some special host tools that are built as part of the
host-python build, in order to build some stuff for the target
python.
So unfortunately, it's not straightforward to use the Python of your
distribution.
Best regards,
Thomas
