10 hmm, imo that depends on the question if we can safely assume that the
11 application compiles with boost 1.35.0 up to 1.48.0 when we set
12 BOOST_MAX_SLOT=1.48
13
14 otherwise we would end up supporting a range of slots which seems
15 unneccessary, no?
16
17 Maybe we should rather do something like
18
19 WANT_BOOST=${WANT_BOOST:-1.48}
20
21 which will force the dependencies and the rest, but the user will
22 still be able to handle this per-package through /etc/portage/env if
23 he sees fit.
