[Bug 531973] Re: [UNMETDEPS] libboost-mpi-dev has unmet dependencies in Lucid

[Russel Winder]

The fix proposed by Fabrice at #5 deletes the Boost MPI material from
the distribution, which has to be the wrong solution to the problem.
The correct solution is surely to add the missing packages and correct
the dependency in the specification?

Ubuntu 10.10 should include a full Boost 1.43 or 1.44 if that comes out
with good time for testing.   I appreciate Debian only has 1.42 just now
but if Ubuntu only moved up to that it would be better than the current
1.40/1.41 situation.
