The pkg_post* functions have bare calls to gnome2_giomodule_cache_update in glib-networking, which only works when compiling natively. In glib, there is a cross-compiling conditional block that allows the build to succeed. Compare: https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo/blob/master/dev-libs/glib/glib-2.66.2.ebuild#L259-L270 https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo/blob/master/net-libs/glib-networking/glib-networking-2.66.0.ebuild#L55-L73 Can that condition be copied to the calls in glib-networking? Maybe just move it to the eclass so it's fixed everywhere? Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. cross-emerge -v net-libs/glib-networking Actual Results: * .ppc: running multilib_pkg_postinst * Updating GIO modules cache ... /var/tmp/portage/net-libs/glib-networking-2.64.3/temp/environment: line 1630: /usr/powerpc-gentoo-linux-gnu/usr/bin/powerpc-gentoo-linux-gnu-gio-querymodules: cannot execute binary file: Exec format error [ !! ] * ERROR: net-libs/glib-networking-2.64.3::gentoo failed (postinst phase): * Update GIO modules cache failed (for ppc) Expected Results: It should build and install.

The warning is copied from dev-libs/glib. This also reorders the exception handling by increasing severity so that the "nothing to do" non-error returns first, otherwise the expected problem of unexecutable cross-compiled commands returns, otherwise the unexpected problem of missing commands returns. The immodule cache functions were updated to handle a different problem. They run native tools from BROOT, but they are not guaranteed to exist while cross-compiling (e.g. gtk+ can't BDEPEND on itself, so the cross-compiled gtk+ can be installed before the native gtk+, which fails from gtk-query-immodules not existing).
