Package: dogecoin
Version: 1.10.0-7.1
Severity: wishlist
User: team+bo...@tracker.debian.org
Usertags: boost1.71

Dear Maintainer,

your package fails to build with boost1.71. You can find a build log
attached. If you want to attempt the build yourself, an updated version
of boost-defaults which brings in boost1.71 dependencies can be found
adding this line to your sources.list file:

  deb https://people.debian.org/~gio/reprepro gio main

This bug has severity whishlist for the moment, but it will raised to RC
as soon as version 1.71 of Boost is promoted to default.

More specifically, your package fails building because it uses some
retired API from Boost.Asio. It appears, though, that upstream dogecoin
has since long stopped using Asio, switching to libevent2 as IO library
since commit 40b556d3742a1f65d67e2d4c760d0b13fe8be5b7 (dated Fri Jan 23
07:53:17 2015 +0100). I believe it would be more advisable to package an
updated version of dogecoin rather than patch it for Boost 1.71.

Thanks and all the best, Giovanni.
