Re: [RFC PATCH] No more boost::context

 

FYI, the updated msys2 boost packages have been released.  I tested the
64-bit build of KiCad using the boost package version 1.60.0-2 and it
works fine.  You can now safely remove the ignore boost package
statement from your pacman.conf file.  I'll update the compiling kicad
doc when I get a chance.
