Description Sebastian Luther (few) 2009-11-13 14:45:57 UTC
The packages in the attached list were found to have dev-libs/boost in RDEPEND, but don't install either any binary that links against boost libs nor any files that include boost headers. That means they are using boost header-only libraries at compile time only.

Please update the list if you fix some package.

We don't do it this way, as you nicely created bugs blocking this bug, we just close the other bugs until this one has no blockers anymore.

Yeah, I was asked later to create those bugs. Forget about the list.
