Package: fritzing
Version: 0.7.10b-1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

Fritzing uses an embedded copy of boost to build.  While not outright
prohibited by policy, it is discouraged.  The attached patch will switch
fritizing to build with the archive boost.  I've tested with boost 1.49 and
it does build.
