Re: boost headers have been removed

 

I checked several of the package logs.  Lucid has its own problem but all
the other recipes are failing with the same bad md5sum.  Maybe somebody
updated the boost tar at sourceforge?  That would not be expected.

Lucid is failing because I wanted cmake 2.8.4 and it is providing only
2.8.0.
