Created attachment 338350 [details] Build log With boost 1.48.0-r2 installed I get this error: configure: error: You need the boost package (e.g. libboost-dev) It would be cool to require something like "1.49.0-r2 or later" to help people updating partially outdated systems. Thanks! PS: Bug #456212 is the same problem on a another package.
I guess because * no one cared for one year and * configure.ac says to require boost 1.36 which is a lot older than the the oldest version in Gentoo (masked 1.49.0-r2 or 1.52.0-r6) this can be closed as obsolete. Feel free to re-open if you like to still address the issue now, I don't object :)
