media-gfx/povray fails to cross-emerge for arm-musl on x86_64-gnu. The configure says Boost is not found, which is of course installed by dependency. Not sure if static-libs USE flag is relevant. (Haven't tried with -static-libs.) build.log and config.log will be attached soon. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.

Wondering if it's as simple as this being wrong: > --with-boost-libdir=/usr/lib

Change these lines: -e 's:"/usr/include":"'${EPREFIX}'/usr/include":' \ -e 's:"/usr/lib":"'${EPREFIX}'/usr/'$(get_libdir)'":' \ to: -e 's:"/usr/include":"'${ESYSROOT}'/usr/include":' \ -e 's:"/usr/lib":"'${ESYSROOT}'/usr/'$(get_libdir)'":' \ and --with-boost-libdir="${EPREFIX}/usr/$(get_libdir)" \ to --with-boost-libdir="${ESYSROOT}/usr/$(get_libdir)" \

Possibly both EPREFIX and ESYSROOT are expanded as empty strings?
Created attachment 735955 [details, diff] Add --with-boost config option Now I'm trying to build manually because I don't know an appropriate alternative to EPREFIX that expands to /usr/armv7a-softfloat-linux-musleabi. And I have found that without specifying --with-boost option the configure script uses -I/usr/include as CPPFLAGS when checking for Boost library.
Created attachment 735957 [details, diff] Make configure script cross-build friendly Aside from the above issue, the configure script has problems for cross-build. These are mainly because it tries to execute built binaries even when cross-compiling. A patch is attached to fix this.
Created attachment 735959 [details, diff] Use unsigned int instead of uint The make step stops by errors saying that type name 'uint' is unknown. It might suffice to include <sys/types.h>, but the attached patch substitutes unsigned int for uint.
These look OK but have you sent them upstream?
Ah, ESYSROOT is empty because of EAPI=6?
(In reply to Sam James from comment #9) > These look OK but have you sent them upstream? No, not yet.
As for musl, there is also an issue of the default thread stack size being too small for povray to run. This can be worked around by including -Wl,-z,stack-size=2097152 (can be smaller) in LDFLAGS. (Another problem is that now I am not much interested in cross-emerging povray.)
I can reproduce without static-libs on musl amd64
