Trouble building on Raspberry PI 4

[willm10034]

I get the following error with whichever way I try to build...

cmake version 3.26.4
python version 3.11.3
(I've confirmed the same issue with python 3.11.4)

[89/402] BuildTest.WrongOutputInDepfileCausesRebuild

Any help would be appreciated.

I am able to install by using: python3 -m pip install ninja==1.10.0

but, this doesn't fix the overall problem as pip still tries to install the newest version.

pip should now download a binary wheel.
