xcb-util and xcb-util-image start configure.ac with XORG_MACROS_VERSION(), so
autoreconf dies before configure runs:
configure.ac:10: error: must install xorg-macros 1.16.0 or later before
running autoconf/autogen
libice failed identically earlier -- it was dropped as unnecessary, but
xcb-util-image is genuinely required (plasma-desktop needs the XCB IMAGE
component), so the macros had to be ported rather than routed around.
util-macros ships only autoconf m4 text and a pkg-config file -- no compiled
code, so no cross-compilation concern. Installed into the sysroot's
share/aclocal, which is already the directory the cookbook passes to
autoreconf (-I .../sysroot//share/aclocal), so consumers need no other change.
Verified by cooking it standalone before wiring it in: builds successfully and
stages usr/share/aclocal/xorg-macros.m4. The recipe asserts that file exists,
since a silent no-op would resurface as the same "must install xorg-macros"
error in a consumer, far from the cause.
