Doesn’t that failure suggest something’s really wrong?  Seems worth
investigating.

Blis isn’t listed in ‘inputs’, and apparently that’s because it’s
bundled.

Could you “unbundle” it?  That is, add Blis as an input, make sure it
gets used during the build process, and remove the bundled copy.

Thanks in advance,
Ludo’.
