Thanks to Kencu's advice, I fixed `meson` so that it can now build for ppc+ppc64. So at first I added `depends_skip_archcheck-append python310 py310-cython` to `gobject-introspection` Portfile and tried to build it as `+universal`. It failed with the following: {{{ ---> Configuring gobject-introspection Executing: cd ""/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_macports_release_tarballs_ports_gnome_gobject-introspection/gobject-introspection/work/gobject-introspection-1.72.0"" && /opt/local/bin/meson --prefix=/opt/local -Ddoctool=enabled -Dpython=/opt/local/bin/python3.10 /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_macports_release_tarballs_ports_gnome_gobject-introspection/gobject-introspection/work/gobject-introspection-1.72.0 /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_macports_release_tarballs_ports_gnome_gobject-introspection/gobject-introspection/work/build The Meson build system Version: 0.59.1 Source dir: /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_macports_release_tarballs_ports_gnome_gobject-introspection/gobject-introspection/work/gobject-introspection-1.72.0 Build dir: /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_macports_release_tarballs_ports_gnome_gobject-introspection/gobject-introspection/work/build Build type: native build Project name: gobject-introspection Project version: 1.72.0 meson.build:1:0: ERROR: Unable to detect linker for compiler ""/usr/bin/gcc-4.2 -Wl,--version -pipe -Os -arch ppc -arch ppc64 -I/opt/local/include"" stdout: stderr: A full log can be found at /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_macports_release_tarballs_ports_gnome_gobject-introspection/gobject-introspection/work/build/meson-logs/meson-log.txt Command failed: cd ""/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_macports_release_tarballs_ports_gnome_gobject-introspection/gobject-introspection/work/gobject-introspection-1.72.0"" && /opt/local/bin/meson --prefix=/opt/local -Ddoctool=enabled -Dpython=/opt/local/bin/python3.10 /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_macports_release_tarballs_ports_gnome_gobject-introspection/gobject-introspection/work/gobject-introspection-1.72.0 /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_macports_release_tarballs_ports_gnome_gobject-introspection/gobject-introspection/work/build Exit code: 1 Error: Failed to configure gobject-introspection: consult /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_macports_release_tarballs_ports_gnome_gobject-introspection/gobject-introspection/work/build/meson-logs/meson-log.txt Error: Failed to configure gobject-introspection: configure failure: command execution failed }}} Then I added `muniversal 1.0` PortGroup and tried to build again.
