I can confirm that this problem seems to exist since about 10 hours.  I
hope it will be solved quickly.  Once this is done I'd offer to sponsor
your package in case nobody else might step in according to my
Sponsering of Blends effort

I think you should rather Build-Depends from libboost-all-dev which
would simplify transitions.

Thanks for your work on this package
