Is nettle-dev:ppe64el installed in the image?
If not installed, there is no point in removing it.

I have no experience modifying build images, I will open an issue in the
image
repository asking to add support for powerpc64.
The cross-compiler packages are supported officially. libc6-ppc64-cross
installs
 the same required files that are installed by libc6:ppc64 but without
copying the LD shared
library to the default directory so the patch exports QEMU_LD_PREFIX to
point out to
the LD location. So yes, it works fine since it behaves the same.

Thank you,
