I'm trying to understand the output of:

Particularly, I'm looking at why python-pytest has an input arrow from 
python-rdflib, while it's
"only" a native-input?  I thought the "references" graph type would only 
include run-time
references, but I don't know what happens in this case.

What am I missing?

It should, but sometimes there are bugs in the package definition or build system, in this case causing python-rdflib to refer to the native-input python-pytest.  Likely it's the 'add-install-to-path' phase adding too much, a known issue, which could be solved by separating inputs and native-inputs on the build side when compiling natively (and not only when cross-compiling) (currently they are merged together into 'inputs'), though non-trivial.

Greetings,
Maxime.
