It works for me!

But, aside from pkg-config, why are those libraries native-inputs rather
than regular inputs? They package seems to work when they are regular
inputs.

Native inputs are typically things that need to run at build-time, so
they must be built for the "native" architecture of the builder. This
matters when cross-compiling.

Also, is it really defined by its similarity to Midnight Commander? If
so, can you say what Midnight Commander is in the description?

Finally, your attached patch had a MIME type of
application/octet-stream, so it was rather challenging to work with. I'm
not sure if that's a shortcoming of my setup or yours...

That's why I haven't quoted it in my reply.
