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It would be cool to require something like "1.49.0-r2 or later" to help people updating partially outdated systems.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 :)
