The occurrence of -L/usr/lib that is making your build fail is the
directory where to find the Python library, which is obtained by

python -c "import distutils.sysconfig; print(' '.join(filter(None,distutils.sysconfig.get_config_vars('LIBDIR'))))"

I don't know how this is supposed to work when you have libraries for
multiple architectures on the system but only one python binary.
