If Joakim takes on setting up new boost installations, then feel free to set 1.49 as minimum version as far as I am concerned.
Hehe - I guess I had that one coming; and that is fine. However my initial suggestion - is that we just consider setting 1.44 as minimum; it is at least my impression that most active developers support that out of the box right now. Slightly more thought through than "what we have currently have in Statoil", I reckon there is an argument to settle for a version in the range where both version 2 and version 3 of the filesystem coexist, I think that range is 1.44 -1.48. If we settle for a version in that range the transition from filesystem version 2 to filesystem version 3 can be made on a module by module basis with compile switches. Now the reactions on my "increase boost" iniative have been reasonably positive; but right now the most important thing for me is to advance the opm-parser / opm-core integration, and if the maintainers are really reluctant to let the boost-1.44 dependency slip through to the opm-core/opm-parser-integrate branch I will bend over backwards and use/support boost fs version 2 and boost version 1.39.

However, it seems like Red Hat 6 ships with version 1.41. Hence, version >= 1.41 is unproblematic from my end. Any larger version and we need to discuss how to support it (static linking to avoid dependency issues or out-of-tree custom install of boost like we now do for Red Hat 5). Joakim, feel free to share your thoughts. You write "version >= 1.41 is unproblematic from .."; but I guess you mean "version <= 1.41 is unprob..."? Anyway in my opinion version 1.41 is quite pointless, there is boost filesystem tripwire set out between the versions 1.44 - 1.48 which must overcome at one point, so upgrading to 1.41 is in my opinion quite pointless. Seen from Statoil I feel that the current boost installation in common area /project/res works perfectly fine, and I fully expect that to continue to work after an upgrade to RedHat6. ------------------------------------------------------------------- The information contained in this message may be CONFIDENTIAL and is intended for the addressee only.
