Comment (by nikkoara@…):

 Replying to [comment:11 raimue@…]:
 > I tried to build the default, which is `+shared`. I should not need
 static boost libraries for this. However, looking at the `+shared`
 variant, I noticed it is not actually doing anything:

 `-replace` finds nothing to replace. Probably you meant to use `-append`
 with the second argument only? This works for me:

 Aha.

 I went back to testing it against Boost variants. I see now that the
 failure you noticed occurs in the scenario where Boost is installed with
 defaults (i.e., +no_static) which does not build but a handful of static
 libraries; in turn, cpp-netlib Portfile configure.args-replace does indeed
 nothing because the arg is not among the defaults. Will correct it
 shortly.

 avoid wasting CPU time to build examples which will not be installed at
 all. I am unsure if the same is true for `-DCPP-
 NETLIB_BUILD_TESTS:BOOL=OFF` and `-DCPP-
 NETLIB_BUILD_EXPERIMENTS:BOOL=OFF`, since they could be used for `port
 test`, but I did not try.

 I will add them all. Thanks!
