AUR Wizards, With upstream's removal of libboost_system I needed to remove the Scons config making use of the library. Instead of patching the files, I simply used a couple of sed expressions to handle the issue from the PKGBUILD (there were many others there when I stepped in as the maintainer) I want to know if it matters, and whether patches are preferred, or if handling a couple of removals via sed or awk is okay. I added the following to handle the changes: # delete libboost_system references from scons due to removal # from boost/boost-libs upstream in ver. 1.89. sed -i '/^boostLibs =/s/, "system"//' SConstruct sed -i '348d' src/third_party/SConscript Builds fine, only complaint is it has to serial link instead of using the requested lto link, which I see with some other packages as well. Anyway, if there is a preference to patch instead of use sed, I can clean that up on the next commit, but I am curious if there is a preference or if either/or is okay. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
