I believe this is the same problem reported in another ticket. That ticket has been addressed and the fix has been checked into the trunk. I will migrate to the release branch soon.

So I'm marking this as "fixed". Feel free to integrate the fix from the trunk to your own copy and retest.

Robert,

Please, be specific on this. What is 'that' ticket?

I've looked through the tickets for 1.41, 1.42 and unspecified milestones and did not find the appropriate one. I'd like to patch for the specific issue or a set of issues, not to integrate all changes from the trunk.

Could you please provide me with exact ticket name/ID?

Damn, I can't find the track item either.

But I believe that I have fixed this (if it's what I think it is) and checked the fix into the trunk. If all goes well, I'll merger these changes into the release in a week or so.

I had the same problem searching for the ticket. But I think it is 'https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/3638'

Robert,

I see 12 modified files under /serialization in trunk and more than one hundred under /archive compared to 1.41 release tag. The ticket #3638 does not contain any information about the check-in which fixed the issue.

Could you point me to correct revision numbers, so that I could create a patch that fixes the particular issue?

If this is really hard, I would be pleased if you just tell me how to roll back the serialization library from 1.41 to 1.39, which is known to work. Is that possible given that there are dependencies between Boost libraries?

Thank you for your attention to this problem.

Folks,

Please provide a definite answer on this.

The issue is important, because the update of serialization library to 1.41 breaks the existing application, preventing the whole boost package from integration into the FreeBSD ports.

It is sufficient to provide one of the following:

1) A patch file that fixes the issue.
2) A revision number, in which the issue was fixed.
3) A set of instructions explaining how to roll back the serialization library to 1.39 (it's known to work).

The fix for this was checked into the trunk 27 November - change set #57981.

Subsequently, all changes in the trunk have been merged to the release branch so should show up in version 1.42

Robert,

Using the change set information provided by you I was able to find the particular fix and include it into the port. This allows Gigi toolkit to build successfully.

Thank you for your time!
