Source: boost1.61 Severity: normal Usertags: embed built-using Unicode 8.0 was semi-recently released and unicode-data 8.0-1 was uploaded.
The boost1.61 source package contains embedded data copies of several files from the unicode-data package: boost/spirit/home/support/char_encoding/unicode/UnicodeData.txt boost/spirit/home/support/char_encoding/unicode/Scripts.txt boost/spirit/home/support/char_encoding/unicode/PropList.txt boost/spirit/home/support/char_encoding/unicode/DerivedCoreProperties.txt Upstream appears to have converted those files into these files before releasing the tarball. One of those files (query.hpp) is generated by a python script that is not available in the source package, I think this is therefore a severity serious bug but I'm not sure. boost/spirit/home/support/char_encoding/unicode/query.hpp boost/spirit/home/support/char_encoding/unicode/uppercase_table.hpp boost/spirit/home/support/char_encoding/unicode/category_table.hpp boost/spirit/home/support/char_encoding/unicode/script_table.hpp boost/spirit/home/support/char_encoding/unicode/lowercase_table.hpp These files are then shipped in the libboost1.61-dev binary package. Please ask upstream to remove the above files from the source package and instead build-depend on the unicode-data binary package, convert the relevant files to headers at build time and add a Built-Using header: https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-relationships.html#s-built-using -- bye, pabs https://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise
