For me it is possible to build it on aarch64 with a docheck = false.

What also works is to patch file monkeypatches/init.py -> method patch_testcase_timeout.

If unittest.TestCase.timeout = 5 is changed to the value 120, it installs without problems.

So, what is the best strategy to work around that problem?
