Upstream had replaced boost::context to a built-in libcontext library in https://bugs.launchpad.net/kicad/+bug/1658249, so libboost-context in dependency should be dropped.
ah, thanks for the pointing. I'm not following the development of KiCad in these specific parts that regularly so I haven't seen this change by myself. And most users are not using mips* hardware. :-)
Also, after we upgrade to GLM-0.9.9.6 in sid, GCC build is possible again, thus clang is no longer required too. After drop these two dependencies, we can now trigger a success build on mips64el platform.
For now I'm feeling comfortable to stay with clang as compiler suite for unstable/testing and buster. We gain nothing if we switch back to gcc.
I've started a test build on a mips64el porter box and it looks good so far. But I'll wait until the release of 5.1.6 before pushing a new version to the archive. Should be not that far away.
