Boost 1.90.0

FEDORA-2026-025b0b5436 created by jwakely a month ago for Fedora 44

This updates Fedora rawhide to use the latest release of the Boost C++ libraries, 1.90.0

This change was approved for F44: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/F44_Boost_1_90

This update brings new sonames for the Boost shared libraries. Some packages which depend on Boost libraries will be broken in Rawhide, because they are currently unable to be built (some because of changes in Boost, but many for unrelated reasons). Those packages will need to be fixed separately.

For bugs related to the new Boost packages, create a new bug and set it to block https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2429148

The failures here were waived with:

"It is expected that some package dependencies will be broken by this update. Additional work will be needed to fix those packages so they can be built."

This is not a good or valid reason for a waiver. You have broken Rawhide thoroughly by doing this. I will request this entire update be untagged and ask you to please not do this in future.

On both Workstation and KDE, the important broken dependencies that are currently visible are libcmis and libreoffice.

Won't they break in basically the same way after the mass rebuild?

User Icon adamwill commented & provided feedback a month ago

If you leave the boost soname bump committed to dist-git and don't fix libcmis and LO, yes.

It looks like the libreoffice COPR build failed because it buildrequires libcmis, so we could try building libcmis then libreoffice against it, I guess. But LO does also use boost directly so the chances of it also needing changes are relatively high.
