Thanks!  

I've fixed this for the upcoming Boost 1.60 upload.
I have no plans at present to upload any further 1.58 releases.

Correction:

- libboost-context1.58-dev (= ${binary:Version})
+ libboost-context1.58-dev (= ${binary:Version}),
+ libboost-coroutine1.58.0 (= ${binary:Version})

Not sure what effect (= ${binary:Version}) has on a *-dev package.

libboost-coroutine1.58-dev doesn't pull in the corresponding binary package.

/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libboost_coroutine.so is now a dangling symlink.

I think you need following change in debian/control.in

Package: libboost-coroutine1.58-dev
Homepage: http://www.boost.org/libs/coroutine/
Architecture: any
Multi-Arch: same
Section: libdevel
Depends: ${misc:Depends},
 libboost1.58-dev (= ${binary:Version}),
- libboost-context1.58-dev (= ${binary:Version})
+ libboost-context1.58-dev (= ${binary:Version}),
+ libboost-coroutine1.58-dev (= ${binary:Version})

Historically, some boost libraries only built in static config while others 
only built in shared.   When I set up boost rules, I generally use the 
upstream options.  So in this case, I presume that Boost.Coroutine was 
originally static-only.

The good news is that it now also builds shared, so indeed it is a trivial fix.

It makes the library completely unusable for me, since I need to link to
it from a shared object. I imagine I am not the only one attempting to
do that.

Right now I am forced to drop crucial functionality in Debian for a
library that I develop (http://graph-tool.skewed.de) simply because of
this bug.

BTW, the fix should be fairly trivial.

I wonder why this library is being compiled static-only in the first
place, since this is not the default in Debian. All other boost
libraries are compiled as shared objects as well.

Best,
Tiago

Steve's right: this bug is not grave.

[Tiago de Paula Peixoto]

Package: libboost-coroutine-dev
Version: 1.58.0.1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Dear Maintainer,

The boost-coroutine library is currently only compiled as a static
library, while all other boost libraries are compiled also as shared
objects.

Static librares cannot be linked against shared objects, and hence
this renders this library useless by other libraries and plugins.

AFAIK, there is no reason to compile it as a shared object, since that
is what most other distros do.

Best,
Tiago
