Is there a non-ugly variant of this in the works?

Do we really need a host-python here? I mean, can't we use the one
provided by the distribution, which is a Buildroot requirement?

Of course, if we need to have the same Python version on the host and
the target, then host-python is needed. Otherwise, if we could avoid
that dependency, it would be great.

Thanks,

Thomas
