This bug has been discussed on this thread: https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?p=8423710#8423710 From MySQL documentation (here: https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/source-installation-prerequisites.html ) The Boost C++ libraries are required to build MySQL (but not to use it). MySQL compilation requires a particular Boost version. Typically, that is the current Boost version, but if a specific MySQL source distribution requires a different version, the configuration process will stop with a message indicating the Boost version that it requires. To obtain Boost and its installation instructions, visit the official site. After Boost is installed, tell the build system where the Boost files are located by defining the WITH_BOOST option when you invoke CMake. Please attach the entire build.log as Gentoo uses the MySQL sources with boost included and should not need it externally. |
