Hey, qemu-user-static in a runc container works pretty well for running ARM binaries . Cross-compiling is a mess though. I recently spent a few hours trying to get GCC 9 + musl to cross compile properly as a static relocatable toolchain for my CI builds.

EDIT: Also, no, I don't ship tk with my Python packages (and neither does Kobo), so, no tkinter .
And speaking of GUIs, it usually works better to make a web-based interface and either run it in the kobo browser or a separate QT app with a WebView.
