Hello,

I tried to compile the latest Spring source code on Debian Etch by following instructions here: spring.clan-sy.com/wiki/SetupGuide#Build_From_Source . But I encoutered problems for libboost library, as Etch libboost version is "1.33.1", not "1.34.*". The libboost "1.34.1" Debian package is available for Debian testing/unstable releases, but it depends on "libc6 (>= 2.6-1)" package and so on... So is it possible to build the latest Spring source on Debian Etch without having to force lot of deb updates to testing/unstable releases ?

Thank you

Finally I found a backported libboost 1.34.1 package for Etch there: download.tuxfamily.org/emiscabpo/lyx15-bpo
I also had to get libboost-serialization-dev from the same place, because "scons configure" was complaining about it.
