Hello stupid, or anyone else affected,

Accepted libtorrent-rasterbar into cosmic-proposed. The package will
build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source
/libtorrent-rasterbar/1.1.9-1ubuntu0.1 in a few hours, and then in the
-proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how
to enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this
update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested and change the tag from
verification-needed-cosmic to verification-done-cosmic. If it does not
fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the
tag to verification-failed-cosmic. In either case, without details of
your testing we will not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s)

Title:
  python3-libtorrent linking libboost_python27.so instead of
  libboost_python36.so

Status in boost1.67 package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix
Status in libtorrent-rasterbar package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in boost1.67 source package in Cosmic:
  New
Status in libtorrent-rasterbar source package in Cosmic:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  Due to the libboost-python naming convention changing,
  python3-libtorrent incorrectly links to libboost_python27.so instead
  of libboost_python36.so in cosmic. The essentially renders the package
  useless.

  [Test Case]

  Run the command:

  $ python3 -c "import libtorrent"

  With 1.1.9-1 on cosmic, it will fail with:

  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
  ImportError: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libboost_python27.so.1.67.0: undefined symbol: PyClass_Type

  
  The command should exit without error in the fixed version.

  [Regression Potential]

  There is little regression potential as the package is currently
  broken without this fix.

  ----

  An error occurs when importing the libtorrent module from python 3.x
  script:

  ImportError: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libboost_python27.so.1.67.0:
  undefined symbol: PyClass_Type

  How to reproduce:
  1. Install packages:
  python36
  python3-libtorrent
  2. Run any python script importing libtorrent module
