Yes, Denis Arnaud has kindly prepared a new release, but forgot to give
a yell.  That said, it's been a ritual for about past three years that
with every Fedora there comes a point in time when boost breaks all its
clients.  That much should be hardly surprising.

To address a point raised in another mail: this version is here to stay,
unless something goes awry.  We will of course fix bugs as they turn up,
but neither further rebasing, nor withdrawing this version is in plan as
of now.

Note that boost::filesystem v2 has been scheduled for removal in 1.48,
but this doesn't seem to have happened yet, the code is still there.

If there are problems with compiling against the new boost, or you want
to address some point of packaging, feel free to contact me.  I'm _petr
on #fedora-devel.

Thanks,
PM
