I don't believe there is a bug here. What happened is that 1. I released boost defaults version 1.48.0.1 that changed the default to Boost 1.48.0. 2. It turns out this is too soon as there are packages that fail to build with Boost 1.48. 3. I released boost defaults version 1.48.0.2 that reverted the default back to 1.46.1. I see now that versioning the boost-defaults according to the boost version is a mistake, but for the moment, that's what we're stuck with. So it is weird and surprising that the current default is 1.46.1, but that's what it is. If you still feel there is a bug, please reply with more details. Otherwise, please email 653228-d...@bugs.debian.org to close this bug. Thanks, -Steve
