[HEADS UP] F33 Boost 1.73.0 rebuilds starting in a side tag
I'm starting the rebuilds for Boost 1.73.0 and packages that depend on
it, using the f33-boost side tag.
If you see "Rebuilt for Boost 1.73.0" in the changelog for one of your
packages, please do not make another update. Instead co-ordinate with
me to use the side tag for your update (if your package also depends
on Python then also talk to Miro Hrončok).
If your package depends on Boost and you don't see "Rebuilt for Boost
1.73.0" in the %changelog yet, it might be worth checking with me
anyway, as I'll probably be starting it soon.
The new Boost will include the following changes:
- rename boost-jam package to boost-b2, and /usr/bin/bjam with
/usr/bin/b2 (it looks nothing in Fedora uses this anyway)
- obsolete the separate boost-nowide package, as Boost 1.73.0 includes
the Boost.Nowide library now
jhogarth, please confirm you're aware of the nowide change. The
existing boost-nowide package will need to be retired in rawhide.
New changes already in rawhide:
- boost-python3-devel subpackage removed, those files are provided by
boost-devel now.
- Boost libraries no longer link to libpython.
Thanks for your help.
