Unfortunately, the Boost ABI changes from release to release, so it is not possible to build GNU Radio binary packages that are dependent on a >= version of Boost. Rather, they have to be tied to a specific Boost version. Jaunty ships with 1.35 and 1.37 available. Karmic ships with 1.38 and 1.40 available. So it isn't possible to build binary packages that depend on a common version of Boost for both releases. Right now I am testing the deb file creation process with 3.3git on Karmic (9.10), using Boost 1.40, and these will get posted on gnuradio.org in the unstable repository. Depending on time (and feedback), I will also build binary packages for 3.3git based on Boost 1.37, but it is unclear how to name them or publish them so as to not conflict with the 9.10 ones.
