Termux installation error

If during Lazurite installation on Termux (Android) you encounter this error:

aarch64-linux-android-clang++: error: unknown argument: '-fno-openmp-implicit-rpath'
      error: command '/data/data/com.termux/files/usr/bin/aarch64-linux-android-clang++' failed with exit code 1
      note: This error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a problem with pip.

ERROR: Failed building wheel for pyjson5
Failed to build pycryptodome pyjson5
ERROR: Could not build wheels for pycryptodome, pyjson5, which is required to install pyproject.toml-based projects

It can be fixed by running the following commands (as suggested here):

_file="$(find $PREFIX/lib/python3.11 -name "_sysconfigdata*.py")"
rm -rf $PREFIX/lib/python3.11/__pycache__
cp $_file "$_file".backup
sed -i 's|-fno-openmp-implicit-rpath||g' "$_file"
