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.
