Package: libasio-dev Version: 1.3.1-1 Severity: normal Any file that includes <asio/read_until.hpp> or the convenience header <asio.hpp> will fail to compile if libboost-regex-dev is not installed on the system, because asio/read_until.hpp unconditionally includes boost/regex.hpp.
This is not nearly as serious as the other bug I just filed about a missing dependency on libboost-date-time-dev; a nontrivial program that uses libasio may not need the read_until functionality. However, it does make the convenience header unusable and therefore prevent the examples from compiling as-is. I recommend adding a Recommends: for libboost-regex-dev. I wouldn't especially *object* to a Depends: but I have gone to some trouble to avoid using that library and would like to keep it off my system. If you feel like talking to upstream about this, it would be nice if there were a macro that could be #defined by the user that would cause asio/read_until.hpp to not include boost/regex.hpp and omit the read_until variants that use regexes. -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.27-1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages libasio-dev depends on: ii libboost-dev 1.34.1-15 Boost C++ Libraries development fi Versions of packages libasio-dev recommends: ii libssl-dev 0.9.8g-15 SSL development libraries, header libasio-dev suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
