[pkg-boost-devel] Circular buffer and Debian package for libboost

[Matthieu Boinet]

Hello everyone,

I'm new to packaging, and I'm going to try to create one for Avisynth  
3 (http://avisynth3.unite-video.com/). The status is still alpha for  
this software and I'm trying to build it from source as a starting  
point.

This software needs libboost and the cicular buffers. As I see from  
this page :
http://www.crystalclearsoftware.com/cgi-bin/boost_wiki/wiki.pl?action=browse&diff=1&id=LibrariesUnderConstruction
the library is not yet in Boost upstream.

 From all this information, I think I'm going to wait for inclusion in  
the Debian package of this library to create a clean package.
I'm new to Boost, I didn't even know it existed yesterday. Does it  
evolve rapidly ? (The hidden question is : how much time could I be  
waiting for a release including  "cicular buffers" ?)

I'm open to any suggestion on how to deal with this matter.

Anyway, thanks for your work,

       Matthieu
