I'm using the powerpc64-unknown-linux-gnu-emerge script generated by crossdev (on a x86_64 host). When building libxcb, it appears that it does not pick up the dep on xcb-proto for some reason. # powerpc64-unknown-linux-gnu-emerge -av libxcb * IMPORTANT: 4 news items need reading for repository 'gentoo'. * Use eselect news read to view new items. These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done! [ebuild N ] x11-libs/libxcb-1.11-r1:0/1.11::gentoo to /usr/powerpc64-unknown-linux-gnu/ USE="xkb -doc (-selinux) -static-libs {-test}" 0 KiB Total: 1 package (1 new), Size of downloads: 0 KiB Would you like to merge these packages? [Yes/No] However xcb-proto is not installed. Looking at the ebuild, it appears that the dep is semi-there, via some python_gen_any_dep script. Not sure what that does, but I'd say that goes wrong in a cross-compiling environment.

cc-ing python team in case some special steps are required to use python-any-r1.eclass when cross-compiling.
FWIW this has happened for a ton of packages, esp X-related. Since I needed to move forward I just installed the relevant packages by hand that the configure script would complain about. I didn't take notes on specifically which ones it was, but I remember looking at the time and it was generally stuff where it was like foo-package[${MULTILIB_USEDEP}] but I don't know that this was the case in all cases. Perhaps it's relevant that the target is ppc64 (and the build host is x86_64), both of which have an ABI situation of some sort.
> cc-ing python team in case some special steps are required to use python-any-r1.eclass when cross-compiling. I doubt cross-compiling has even crossed our minds. That said, python_gen_cond_dep just generates a big || () dep, so it should not really be anything special.
This has nothing to do with python at all. It seems that portage does not install build-time dependencies in ROOT; at least, not by default. Try running powerpc64-unknown-linux-gnu-emerge --root-deps libxcb to see the difference it makes.

As I mentioned, I wanted to get the system actually going so I just installed it by hand. Is there a way to continue analyzing this given that I now have all the deps installed for real? Perhaps there's a emerge --list-the-deps option? Alternatively I'll try it in a different ROOT and see what happens.

I don't think it's related to processor architecture. Here's a log compiling for MIPS.
Same with current portage, crossdev on arm-unknown-linux-gnueabi, and libxcb-1.12-r2.

Please refer to the attachment to see what --root-deps does. Can't say it helps.

I would like to BUMP by saying that while `aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu-emerge -1 libxcb --root-deps --deep --newuse` install plenty of new packages, it does not solve the problem and python was already installed in both host and target. So far it seems editing the eclass and removing the error and associated `die` is the only way to "fix" this issue. XCB then mostly compile, but soon hits the problem where xcb-proto needs to be installed in the HOST system since python uses it and it from the host. ##### WORKAROUND TUTORIAL FOR tl;dr USERS ##### nano /usr/portage/eclass/python-any-r1.eclass # and remove the die USE="xml" emerge xcb-proto python # (yes, on the host) ############## END WORKAROUND #################

I think this is fixed with libxcb-1.14, since it's now using EAPI=7 with has_version -b. Please reopen if I am incorrect.
I think it needs to call "has_version -d" (DEPEND), not "has_version -b" (BDEPEND).
