Boost has been updated to 1.60.0-2.fc24 in rawhide, but many of the packages you have installed (including all the ones that depend on ogre) could not be rebuilt with the new Boost so still depend on 1.59.0. Until they are rebuilt you can't update them, because they have broken deps. This will be resolved shortly, once those packages are rebuilt, but it is not a bug in Boost.
Jonathan, Thanks for your help with this problem. I'll watch for updates. Regards, George...
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 24 development cycle. Changing version to '24'. More information and reason for this action is here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_Program_Management/HouseKeeping/Fedora24#Rawhide_Rebase
All these packages should have been rebuilt against boost-1.60 in February, or some time since, so this should be fixed. If any packages still can't be installed please report a bug against that package so it can be rebuilt.
