https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1828059 Bug ID: 1828059 Summary: Review Request: boost1.73 - The free peer-reviewed portable C++ source libraries Product: Fedora EPEL Version: epel8 Status: NEW Component: Package Review Assignee: nobody@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Reporter: denis.arnaud_fedora@xxxxxxx QA Contact: extras-qa@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx CC: package-review@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Target Milestone: --- Classification: Fedora Spec URL: https://github.com/fedorapackaging/fedorareviews/blob/a4722663644e33ac20ecff2c79e12c7a5ac955fb/reviews/boost/boost_xxx_boost173/boost1.73.spec SRPM URL: https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org//work/tasks/6687/43816687/boost1.73-1.73.0-1.el8.src.rpm Description: A few packages require a fairly recent Boost version, which EPEL does not provide. EPEL 6 and 7 have had Boost-1.48, Boost-1.59 and Boost-1.69 for a while (as parallel installations), thanks also to Robert Scheck and Haïkel Guémar. The very same way those versioned Boost packages have been built for EPEL, it is therefore proposed to build Boost-1.73 for EPEL 7 and 8, as a parallel installation to the currently officially supported Boost packages (Boost-1.53 on EPEL 7 and Boost-1.66 on EPEL 8). To minimize the work (and the support!) to be required, both the pristine Boost-1.73 package on Fedora 33 and versioned Boost-1.69 on EPEL 7 serve as a basis, as they cleanly build on at least EPEL 8 (and most probably on EPEL 7). If relevant in the future, for EPEL 6, work-arounds of Boost148 may have to be re-injected.
