Hi, just yesterday, someone sent me a package description for 1.52. As usual, there are problems with the boost-python libs and the build system has slightly changed. But maybe this might be useful for 1.53, too. Since I haven't looked at this for a very long time (boost-cmake seemed to be the wave of the future), I cannot tell how long it will take me to get something acceptable, but I'll have a look. The users of the boost libraries seem to fall into one of two classes: Those who don't care about python and those who *only* want the libboost-python libs and don't care about the rest. Maybe two separate package descriptions might simplify the update process. -- Martin ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Free Next-Gen Firewall Hardware Offer Buy your Sophos next-gen firewall before the end March 2013 and get the hardware for free!
