OK, I have just finished the local rebuilds against boost-defaults set
to 1.49.
The good news is that of 249 packages, there are just TWO new issues
related to boost 1.49! Thus I'd like to formally request that this
transition (bug #653823) be changed to Boost 1.49 transition.
My next steps are to work on the issues, described in detail below.
IMHO, none of them seem to be show-stoppers so I'd like to get a
sense of when you feel it would be appropriate to flip the
boost-default and upload.
What follows is a summary of my rebuilds. I use the shorthand
"package: #bug [tag] explanation", where "#none" means no bug is yet
filed.
New Issues
----------
luabind: #none [NEW] ./luabind/detail/call_member.hpp:319:1: error: missing binary operator before token "("
This issue is described in upstream tracker ticket
https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/6631 . I'm discussing the
options with upstream on the mailing list; see
http://lists.boost.org/Archives/boost/2012/03/191073.php . It sounds
like there may be a way to fix this in boost itself that I will
investigate. Otherwise, it's a simple fix to luabind.
vtk: #none [NEW] vtkBoostBreadthFirstSearchTree.cxx:56:14: error: 'const class boost::detail::reverse_graph_edge_descriptor<vtkEdgeType>' has no member named 'underlying_desc'
This issue is upstream: the VTK code depends on Boost internals and
needs patch for 1.49. I've filed the bug and will work with upstream
http://vtk.org/Bug/view.php?id=12988
Old Issues
----------
These issues were uncovered when the defaults switched to 1.48, and
remain unfixed. Two of these have a patch in PTS, the third is for a
package (wesnoth-1.8) that is superceeded and won't be fixed.
openvrml: #652790 [PENDING] /usr/include/boost/multi_index/detail/scope_guard.hpp:122:29: error: 'boost::mpl' has not been declared
wesnoth-1.8: #653806 [WONTFIX] error: 'boost::noncopyable_::noncopyable::noncopyable(const boost::noncopyable_::noncopyable&)' is private (known bug, fixed in wesnoth-1.10; won't be fixed in wesnoth-1.8)
witty: #653807 [PATCH] random_device.cpp:45:63: error: 'const result_type boost::random::random_device::min_value' is not a static member of 'class boost::random::random_device' (patch known from boost 1.48)
Unrelated to Boost
------------------
These are all either due to inability to satisfy build-depends or a
build failure unrelated to boost. All I plan to do is file FTBFS bugs
where none yet exist.
