What I see from apt-cache show libboost-python1.40-dev is:
Package: libboost-python1.40-dev
Priority: optional
Section: libdevel
Installed-Size: 2956
Maintainer: Debian Boost Team <pkg-boost-devel at lists.alioth.debian.org>
Architecture: amd64
Source: boost1.40
Version: 1.40.0-2
Depends: libboost1.40-dev (= 1.40.0-2),
libboost-python1.40.0 (= 1.40.0-2),
python-dev,
python (<< 2.6),
python (>= 2.4),
python-support (>= 0.90.0),
python (>= 2.5) | python-celementtree | python-elementtree,
gccxml
> python (>= 2.5) should be replaced by python (>= 2.4)
I believe the extra "python (>= 2.5)" you are talking about is
actually part of
python (>= 2.5) | python-celementtree | python-elementtree
Boost.Python depends on elementtree, and there are three ways to get
it: use python 2.5, or use one of the other two packages mentioned.
In summary: I believe the dependencies are specified correctly.
Let me know if I've missed something.
Thanks,
-Steve
