The error is: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- gcc.compile.c++ bin.v2/libs/context/build/gcc-4.9.3/release/threading-multi/unsupported.o libs/context/src/unsupported.cpp:7:2: error: #error "platform not supported" #error "platform not supported" ^ --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- The options I can think of are: 1. Mark mips64el-linux as unsupported (134 packages depend on Boost, notably LibreOffice, Abiword, and Ardour). 2. Build Boost without multi-threading support on MIPS, assuming it’s only this feature that’s unsupported. 3. Hope that Debian has a patch to fix this and apply it. Thoughts? Ludo’.
