The signals API has been removed in boost-1.70 and is replaced by signals2. dev-ros/tf2 now fails with: CMake Error at /usr/share/cmake/Modules/FindBoost.cmake:2165 (message): Unable to find the requested Boost libraries. Boost version: 1.70.0 Boost include path: /usr/include Could not find the following Boost libraries: boost_signals Some (but not all) of the required Boost libraries were found. You may need to install these additional Boost libraries. Alternatively, set BOOST_LIBRARYDIR to the directory containing Boost libraries or BOOST_ROOT to the location of Boost. Call Stack (most recent call first): CMakeLists.txt:6 (find_package) However boost_signals was just a stale dependency in tf2's CMakeLists.txt, so it can simply be removed.

Huh. Looks like this will become quite tedious since the issue is present in other ROS packages, too and upstream doesn't seem to bother with doing a bugfix release.
