Description Florian Sowade 2016-04-04 11:09:10 UTC
I installed dev-libs/boost-1.60.0 with USE="-context" but the context lib was built anyway and the following .so got installed: /usr/lib64/libboost_context.so.1.60.0.

When USE="-context" is set boost is configured with --without-context --without-coroutine. But a new library Coroutine2 was added in Boost 1.49 which depends on Context, too. This library has to be disabled with --without-coroutine2.

The headers of all three libs (context, coroutine and coroutine2) are not installed.

I haven't revbumped the ebuild, as the changes likely won't affect anyone (consuming boost_context is hardly possible without the headers anyway) and triggering a rebuild for such a small change is likely going to leave a measurable carbon footprint on the atmosphere. If you want the changes, just re-emerge it by hand.
