#71318 assigned defect

Remove `boost` wrapper port, it keeps breaking different dependents of Boost — at Version 1

Port: boost

Description (last modified by barracuda156)

The wrapper port serves no good purpose, its only function is breaking various consumers of Boost libs.

Just another example: https://github.com/NickvisionApps/libnick/issues/50 And one more: https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/pull/25855 And we got yet more in ports tree.

These errors never show up on CI or buildbots, for obvious reasons, but the current set-up is wrong. It wastes time on debugging and then forces to add per-port hacks via conflicts_build.
