[pkg-boost-devel] boost dev tools

[Bernhard Reiter]

Hi,

I've contacted the list once already regarding the same topic [1], but
this time I can fortunately provide a fix which I'd ask to be reviewed!

Find a brief description and debdiffs against sid's boost-build and
boost1.38 at
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/boost1.37/+bug/239670

Abstract: "Part of Boost are a couple of tools (eg boostbook and
quickbook, for producing documentation).
Neither of them can currently be found in any of Ubuntu's Boost-related
packages. Following current practice, they should probably go to
libboost1.3?-dev"

boost-build (2.0-m12-3) unstable; urgency=low

  * debian/rules: Create /etc/boost-build/ directory
  * debian/site-config.jam: Make boost-build include additional 
    configuration files in /etc/boost-build/

boost1.38 (1.38.0-7) unstable; urgency=low

  * debian/control: Recommend and suggest helper packages for use
    with boost tools.
  * debian/rules: Install boostbook, quickbook and inspect tools
    as part of libboost1.38-dev
  * debian/boost-tools.jam: New. Configure boost-build to find
    the tools.

(Sorry for not using Debian's BTS, but as I'm a Ubuntu user, I'm not
really aware of how to properly use it.)

Kind Regards
Bernhard Reiter
