Termux support - Githubissues

Information
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I'm trying to install Solaar inside Termux. It seems that this is not possible right now.
Describe the solution you'd like I'd like support for Solaar to be run in Termux. There's some docs on how to access usb devices within Termux.
Describe alternatives you've considered I was hoping that Logitech would have an Android app, but nope. Alternatively, I can potentially set it up using my main computer.
Additional context For sure the below isn't related to the above (supporting Termux-usb package), however, I did attempt to install it using pipx, but couldn't get past it failing to build ninja. There's a thread discussing this (see https://github.com/termux/termux-packages/issues/8951), but I'm unable to get past the issue based on comments.
$ pkg install xorgproto ninja patchelf gobject-introspection binutils
...

~ $ pipx install solaar
Fatal error from pip prevented installation. Full pip output in file:
    /data/data/com.termux/files/home/.local/state/pipx/log/cmd_2024-06-17_22.22.56_pip_errors.log

pip seemed to fail to build package:
    ninja

Some possibly relevant errors from pip install:
    error: subprocess-exited-with-error

Error installing solaar.
