Yes, but it may not be as simple. PowerTOP uses libncursesw library to link with. Hence for cross compilation we need to make sure that this (or a non-wide char ncurses library, i.e. libncurses) should also be cross compiled for target ARM. And then we should have some option in Makefile (LIBPATH & INCPATH) to point to it. Will it make sense to have a "readme.ARM" or some other file in powertop which describes this step ? Any suggestions on how best to do this ?
