Description Tiziano Müller (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-08-13 14:52:35 UTC
pythonmagick depends on boost-jam and boost, while boost-jam blocks boost. This makes it hard to update.
My proposal is to remove the boost-jam dependency and check for the bjam USE-flag for boost.
In any case, the file pythonmagick/files/boost-build.jam has to be fixed since the location for boost.build changed.

(Sorry for pasting the patch directly here, but it's a oneliner)
