Sorry. About two months ago I responded to a Launchpad email, stating that I no longer have the time to devote to this.

Ok. I've created the team (https://launchpad.net/~boost-latest). I've also downloaded the .dsc, .orig.tar.gz, and .diff.gz files from the Debian repository. I'll give them a look over for the next few days and try to see if I can replicate it with Boost 1.39.

[Bug 329042] Re: Boost 1.38 in Jaunty
Hi. I'd be interested in keeping up with the BOOST releases (latest version is 1.39 at this moment) and ensuring that there is an apt-get repository with the latest release. Unfortunately, I'm very new to the debian packaging process (not to mention that it is somewhat more complicated with boost in particular, since boost seems to be divided among quite a number of apt packages in Ubuntu -- one per library, plus headers, plus documentation) and am not really sure how to go about packaging. So, if any of you would be interested in showing me the ropes just once with BOOST 1.39, I can repeat the process as later versions are released.

[Bug 329042] Re: Boost 1.38 in Jaunty
I wonder if a way forward here is for there to be a Boost Development team created and a Boost project created. Then there can be a PPA for Boost that can have the latest and greatest version available as soon as it is ready. I suspect the easiest way of handling the packaging would be to grab the packaging structures used to create the versions already in Debian and then amend them to suit the changes that have happened since. -- Boost 1.38 in Jaunty https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/329042 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

FYI, boost1.38 was uploaded to Debian sid on Apr 3rd: http://packages.qa.debian.org/b/boost1.38.html Therefore, I suppose adding it to Ubuntu karmic will just need a sync request?

This needs to wait to karmic (where it will come in automatically).

hm... due to the rdepends and build-rdepends upgrading the boost package as present in jaunty right now seems out of scope. In regards to adding this as alternate source package (as I understand that you request), I must admit that I'm not too comfortable with doing that late in the cycle.

[Bug 329042] Re: Boost 1.38 in Jaunty
Additionally to having the boost1.38 package in jaunty, I'd like to propose adding these two patches to the release, as it fixes important bugs/limitations IMHO: * https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/2744 (fixes support for C++ code that uses enums with the same value, e.g. enum { Alpha = 1, Beta = 1}, sounds strange, but some C++ headers use it). * https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/changeset/47846 (adds support for calling methods with both variable arguments and keywords). According to the author of the commit (stefan), it was supposed to be included in the 1.38.0 release, but somehow it was forgot to be applied to the release branch. Both patches are fairly small and come with testsuite updates, therefore the impact of them should be minimal. -- Boost 1.38 in Jaunty https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/329042 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 329042] Re: Boost 1.38 in Jaunty
Seems like boost 1.38 is already in debian's NEW queue: http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/pkg-boost- devel/2009-February/001794.html -- hope that means it'll make it into Jaunty!!! The reason I didn't originally file this as a bug in the boost package is that currently each boost version has its own versioned package (and even source package name). The boost source package is actually 1.34.1; but there are also boost1.35, boost1.36 and boost1.37 source packages. It might be desirable to change this scheme to only have one version again and I think there have been discussions on this subject on debian's boost list, but I'm afraid I can't be of much help on this.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. This bug did not have a package associated with it, which is important for ensuring that it gets looked at by the proper developers. You can learn more about finding the right package at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/FindRightPackage . I have classified this bug as a bug in boost. For future reference you might be interested to know that a lot of applications have bug reporting functionality built in to them. This can be accessed via the Report a Problem option in the Help menu for the application with which you are having an issue.
