Re: Removal of download_boost.cmake.

 

Mario,

The minimum version was based on your input and the current Debian
stable glm version.  If you can get by with an earlier version, let me
know and I will adjust it accordingly.  However (this is a notice to all
developers), I do not want the progress of the development branch to be
hindered because we are trying to support building on older distros.
This is what the stable releases are for.  If you are using older
distros, it becomes incumbent upon you to build newer versions of the
kicad build dependencies if you want to continue to use the development
version.  If we try to be all things to all people, we will end up being
nothing to anyone.
