what the problem to make boost ebuilds "in time" ??? -- personally I liked Gentoo for "speed" (among other features) of new/fresh packages appeared (especially `boost`, cuz I need it as fresh as possible in my daily work)... but last years boost ebuilds are far from being "in time" :( -- and now we have extreme situation: Gentoo still do not have 1.64, while 1.65 is out!!! (taking in account that boost releases have happened not so often as some other packages -- I consider this like a ... far from good or even fail %() anyone can explain to me what the problem with boost ebuilds? no manpower resources?
