Current evaluation

ProjectOptions() returns host machine values instead of respecting --target-arch, causing inconsistent cross-compilation settings (e.g. is_cross_compiling=False, target_arch=arm64 when --target-arch armhf is used). Unlabelled, no comments, inactive for over 4 years.

Suggested action: needs triage

Reason: The issue is unlabelled with zero comments and no maintainer interaction for over 4 years, so it has not been triaged. However, a commit 'project: use correct host arch when target arch is set (#3831)' exists in the repo history that may address this exact problem, so it should be triaged to determine whether it is already fixed before any closure decision.

Issue body

ProjectOptions() reports host machine value, ignoring --target-arch value. This is inconsistent with values passed later the plugins in the build script For example for --target-arch armhf ProjectOptions().is_cross_compiling: False ProjectOptions().target_arch: arm64 ProjectOptions().cross_compiler_prefix: aarch64-linux-gnu- ProjectOptions().arch_triplet: aarch64-linux-gnu ProjectOptions().deb_arch: arm64 ProjectOptions().kernel_arch: arm64 yet in the build.sh values are: export SNAPCRAFT_ARCH_TRIPLET="arm-linux-gnueabihf" export SNAPCRAFT_TARGET_ARCH="armhf"
