Package: sfftobmp Severity: serious Justification: no longer builds from source
Due to the recently-introduced package boost-defaults [1], the unversioned Boost -dev packages changed from Boost version 1.34.1 to version 1.38.0. You package now fails to build due to that change. Specifically, you will need to link against "-mt" variants of the boost libraries. Upstream stopped building separate single- and multi-threaded variants of all libraries and Debian followed suit as of 1.37.0. The single-threaded variant was named, e.g. "-lboost_regex" while the multi-threaded variant was suffixed with "-mt", i.e. named "-lboost_regex-mt". Your package needs to change its linker arguments.
