> Hello all, I was wondering if somebody could help me with the building of zcashd on an odroid C2 running armbian. I couldn’t get the following dependency to be installed : “g++-multilib”. When starting the process as described in the documentation, I’m stuck with the following: error: toolset gcc initialization: error: provided command 'aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu-g++' not found error: initialized from /mnt/usbdrive/zcash/depends/work/build/aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu/boost/1\_66\_0-6ca30f54347/…
