Description:
A few packages require a fairly recent Boost version, which EPEL does not
provide. EPEL 6 and 7 have had Boost-1.48 and Boost-1.59 respectively for a
while (as parallel installations), thanks to Robert Scheck and Haïkel Guémar.
The very same way they built Boost-1.59 for EPEL 7, I therefore propose to
build Boost-1.69 for EPEL 6 and 7, as a parallel installation to the currently
officially supported Boost packages (Boost-1.41 on EPEL 6 and Boost-1.53 on
EPEL 7).
To minimise the work (and the support!) to be required, I re-start from the
Boost-1.69 package on Fedora 30 and Boost-1.57 on EPEL 7, which cleanly build
on EPEL 7. For EPEL 6, work-arounds of Boost148 may have to be re-injected.
