Most probably not, buster will have Boost 1.67. Uploading a new version is extremely time consuming and there is no real indication on what benefits it provides. > P.S.

For the actual Boost package you should look at boost1.67. However, be warned: Boost is a very complicated piece of software, and boost1.67 is a rather complicated package, so it's not the right place for beginners. If you are a beginner, just use boost1.67, it will be more than ok for nearly anything you have to do.
