This is the right place. In the future please don't reply to an existing
post as your message then gets threaded with the one you replied to
(likely why you didn't receive a response so far - that I see anyway).

Is there a reason you are overriding configure and compile? These appear
to be autoconf projects, which should just work for recipes using
autotools.bbclass.

This is better - the pastebin isn't as reliable, and having it inline to

Do you see unistd.h under /opt/yocto/poky-5.0.1-build/tmp/sysroots/qemux86 ?

I see unistd.h missing, not features.h.
