r-cran-bh in Debian is/was still somewhat of a 'hack' as it pretends to be a package it is not, but it appears to have done its job. So updating it is fine. | I attached a patch which also includes a versioned Depends on libboost-dev. Thanks. In the beginning I updated BH when our libboost(-dev) updated, but Debian's feel behind. I can't automagically keep these in sync as we'd be lying, but in this case it is the right move as a few Boost libraries did change (and even require C++14). So will apply this.
