I'd think about upgrading to the latest boost, as 1.55 is quite old and will not get updated. </p> Ticket Mateusz Loskot Fri, 21 Sep 2018 09:02:10 GMT https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/13589#comment:3 https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/13589#comment:3 <ul> <li><strong>component</strong> <span class="trac-field-old">None</span> → <span class="trac-field-new">Building Boost</span> </li> </ul> <p> Shall we close as obsolete? </p> Ticket
