Hi,

I am happy to hear Boost 1.89.0 is ready.

I will reply to the misc/libreoffice part.

It has one important change that might break several packages: boost_system shared library has been removed and the boost_system component is only available as header files. In practice, a package might try to detect the presence of boost_system library or try to link against it. The simple work-around is to remove any reference to boost_system from linker flags and configure scripts.

This is a known problem and not related to new Boost.
I should setup NetBSD/aarch64 environment.
If I get NetBSD/aarch64 environment, it is relatively easy to fix
this failure.

Thanks for your great work.
