+From 72138a67c8e6b0154aadc1b5fcb3d661033fbcd3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001

+Subject: [PATCH] Do not use pkg-config to find wayland-scanner when cross
+ building
+
+When cross-compiling it is still needed to run a native wayland-scanner,
+but many tools for the task will still have pkg-config return the
+location of wayland-scanner for the target in some location which may
+be the same as for some native installation of wayland-scanner; but
+which is not the copy of the program that the compilation system wants
+packages to use (which are typically in a "host tools" directory
+elsewhere).
+
+This disables usage of pkg-config to find wayland-scanner when
+cross-compiling because most tools for the job will set $PATH in a way
+that the correct installation of the tool will be found first.
