[pkg-boost-devel] Bug#706220: libboost-context1.53.0: Boost.Context runtime package is empty

[Lucas Clemente Vella]

Package: libboost-context1.53.0
Version: 1.53.0-3
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

This is bug I found in beta version of Ubuntu (reported here:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/boost1.53/+bug/1168546 )
but that I found to actually belong to Debian.

Boost.Context, unlike most Boost libraries, requires a library
linkage in order to be used, just like Boost.Thread, but the relevant
runtime library (/usr/lib/libboost_context.so.1.53.0, I suppose) is
missing, so the package is essentially empty and useless.
