Package: boost1.39
Version: 1.39.0-4
Severity: normal

Hi,

when doing a parallel build (make -j6 in my case), it failed during the
install stage because it tried to install some libraries into /lib,
which since I'm building with fakeroot, it didn't have the permissions
to do so.

The problem is caused by a missing make dependency in debian/rules, the
"$(bjam)" target should depend on "$(QUILT_STAMPFN)", just as the
build-stamp target does. This missing dependency leads to a race
condition, where "./bootstrap.sh" might be called before the patch in
debian/patches/bootstrap.patch is applied.

Since the patch fixes the problem that bootstrap.sh uses the wrong
variable to set LIBDIR, it leads to a wrong libdir setting in
project-config.jam, which in turn leads to the failure on "install".

Adding the dependency fixed the problem for me.
