aom @3.0.0: ppc_cpudetect.c:15:10: fatal error: asm/cputable.h: No such file or directory

[kencu (Ken)]

first error, at least:

aom_ports/ppc_cpudetect.c:15:10: fatal error: asm/cputable.h: No such file or directory
 #include <asm/cputable.h>
          ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
compilation terminated.

I am afraid I cannot even get to this error.
The only way I can test PPC builds is by setting build_arch to ppc on an Intel virtual machine running Mac OS X 10.5.
Needless to say, it is not a perfect solution.
I run into the following error before I get to the missing header file, and I have no idea how to fix it.

Thanks, Marcus -- I don't actually expect you to personally fix these :>

I just put this here more for an explanation about why we need to disable this dep for libheif on PPC, pending me (or someone like me) fixing it someday.

Thank you, this was very helpful suggestion.

For the record, it also fails on 10.6.8 Rosetta in the same way:
