As always, the release managers would appreciate it if you download the candidate of your choice and give building it a try. Please report both success and failure, and anything else that is noteworthy.
This builds OK in Fedora rawhide, for x86_64 and i386. I haven't tried other targets, nor examined test results. When rebuilding Fedora x86_64 packages against the new Boost packages I haven't noticed any Boost bugs. Some failures I did notice may affect other code: * One package was using boost::re_detail::string_out_iterator, which fails now because the re_detail namespace was renamed to re_detail_1_60_0. This is not a Boost bug. * Multiple packages using Boost.Filesystem fail to compile because they were doing: #include <ifstream> #include <boost/filesystem.hpp> using namespace std; using namespace boost::filesystem and due to changes in the headers included in <boost/filesystem.hpp> that makes the unqualified names "ifstream" and "ofstream" ambiguous. This is not a Boost bug.
