For the sake of consistency, the explanation why Boost.MPI packages are
not built (taken from #531973):

"
Because of the way Boost packages are built, there is not a good way to build 
the MPI packages in Ubuntu without pulling all of the MPI stack into Main and 
no one is willing to do that. The default boost version has, AFAIK, never 
supported MPI for this reason.

If someone can come up with a way to build the MPI and related boost binaries 
with the MPI build-dependencies in Universe, I'm willing to consider it (this 
would require a separate build as the default boost that's in main can't use 
them).
