I don't think that the jail package should be vital.
Otherwise that looks good.

I'm unsure which commit did it, but at a point near this commit the time taken by release builds drastically decreased. Before this close to 20 hours for an aarch64 cross-build, just over 6 after. Even though I can leave my build machine running, the decrease in latency is very nice. Thank you.
