>I'm still wondering about whether it is necessary to ship both single and >multi-threaded versions of the boost libs. Do you have any thoughts? I don't think we need to ship anything but boost threads in single/mt configs. At least, that's what I gather from my non-rpm builds. Do you agree? If so, I'll change the bugzilla report you opened to reflect that, or should another be opened? I would prefer this linkage issue to be handled by a policy in the threads package, but that is a design issue, not a packaging issue. However, wishing is fun, and it's a Friday, so I can't help it. Anyway. I'll work on this specific issue in a bit, after I get feedback from Rene, okay? best, benjamin
