Hm... In Linux arm64/aarch64 setups, using

pants_requirements

from the

pants.backend.plugin_development

backend causes failure on

./pants-local export ::

(where pants itself is built from source) because there is no binary wheel for Linux aarch64. Is it possible to make it to look at the source directory that it is built from?

    requirers:

    via: pantsbuild.pants.testutil<2.15,>=2.14.0a0 -> pantsbuild.pants==2.14.0

how is

./pants-local

finding pants? e.g., does it look in

../pants/

?

./pants-local

finds pants in

tools/pants-src

I'm using Circle CI for that over in the scie-jump. Works well: https://github.com/a-scie/jump/blob/main/.circleci/config.yml

another alternative for me is to publish my own linux-aarch64 wheel build to https://dist.backend.ai/pypi/simple but i think i still need to "customize" where pants finds itself...
