It makes the library completely unusable for me, since I need to link to it from a shared object. I imagine I am not the only one attempting to do that. Right now I am forced to drop crucial functionality in Debian for a library that I develop (http://graph-tool.skewed.de) simply because of this bug. BTW, the fix should be fairly trivial. I wonder why this library is being compiled static-only in the first place, since this is not the default in Debian. All other boost libraries are compiled as shared objects as well.

Bug#802509: libboost-coroutine-dev: The boost-coroutine library is only compiled as a static library
Package: libboost-coroutine-dev Version: 1.58.0.1 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable Dear Maintainer, The boost-coroutine library is currently only compiled as a static library, while all other boost libraries are compiled also as shared objects. Static librares cannot be linked against shared objects, and hence this renders this library useless by other libraries and plugins. AFAIK, there is no reason to compile it as a shared object, since that is what most other distros do.
