Hi! When trying to upgrade package `povray 3.7.0.8` from Guix commit
`404f6953` to that of commit `4a943cfd`, the build fails showing errors like
these:

Not completely sure, but the new commit may be using a compiler which isn't
compatible with the version of Boost used by POV-Ray?
Attaching the whole `/var/log/guix/drvs/ih/kyhpfcn84sg0qbavgaw5rcwxh7cr9w-povray-3.7.0.8.drv.bz2`.

I found what looks like the same issue reported in
<https://github.com/POV-Ray/povray/issues/438>.
As a commenter suggested, I succeeded to build the package using Boost 1.78,
not in the most orthodox way as Guix ships 1.77 and I don't have much
knowledge about Guix packaging, following the package definition:
$ guix build --source povray
/gnu/store/xc4l18mwxzxfvrqmymvkr7yirw1sc6ff-povray-3.7.0.8-checkout
$ guix build boost \
--with-source=boost <at> 1.78.0=https://boostorg.jfrog.io/artifactory/main/release/1.78.0/source/boost_1_78_0.tar.bz2
/gnu/store/yiiqd3c7h4f6z0zia5br7wis3wpisgnr-boost-1.78.0
$ cp -r /gnu/store/xc4l18mwxzxfvrqmymvkr7yirw1sc6ff-povray-3.7.0.8-checkout povray-3.7.0.8-checkout
$ chmod -R u+w povray-3.7.0.8-checkout; cd povray-3.7.0.8-checkout
$ guix environment -C --expose=/gnu/store/yiiqd3c7h4f6z0zia5br7wis3wpisgnr-boost-1.78.0 povray
env$ cd unix/
env$ sh prebuild.sh
env$ cd ..
env$ env COMPILED_BY=Guix ./configure \
--with-boost=/gnu/store/yiiqd3c7h4f6z0zia5br7wis3wpisgnr-boost-1.78.0 \
--with-boost-lib=/gnu/store/yiiqd3c7h4f6z0zia5br7wis3wpisgnr-boost-1.78.0/lib \
--disable-optimiz-arch
env$ make # succeeds
So one solution would be to upgrade Boost to 1.78, though that may affect many
packages. However, given the nature of the error, other packages may
eventually get bitten by it. BTW, this is where I think they fixed the Boost
issue for 1.78: <https://github.com/boostorg/math/pull/676/files>
Cheers!

So I tried to create a patch (attached) which just drops the fixed version of
`header_deprecated.hpp` from Boost 1.78 [1] in Povray's `source` directory,
since that include path has priority over the profile's Boost one during
build. I tried building with:
$ guix build povray --with-patch=povray=./povray-fix-boost-1.77-math-tools-pragma.patch
[…]
/gnu/store/mp687jry3rb96ff3jbaijibz4klhjicd-povray-3.7.0.8
So it built successfully.
[1]: https://github.com/boostorg/math/blob/boost-1.78.0/include/boost/math/tools/header_deprecated.hpp
Thus, the patch may be applied until Boost is upgraded to 1.78, at which point
it can be removed.
Thanks!

I tried installing the package again under Guix 44bbfc24 and it installed
successfully. It was probably working after a59afdc9 (2022-02-03), which
updated Boost to 1.78.0.
This issue may be closed, thanks!
