RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description of problem:

We'd like to request that the boost iostreams library be built with lzma compression support. The default boost iostreams library is not build with lzma compression support on RHEL8. We are using the default boost 1.66.0 on our environment.

/usr/include/boost/iostreams/filter/lzma.hpp is available using boost-devel package, but we would like to see lzma support in /usr/lib64/libboost_iostreams.so.1.66.0 as well.

What is the business impact? Please also provide timeframe information.
We are building our tools on RHEL8, but this is preventing us migrating to it.

Where are you experiencing the behavior? What environment?
RHEL8

When does the behavior occur? Frequency? Repeatedly? At certain times?
Everytime

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
[root@lab-rhel8-1 ~]# rpm -q boost-iostreams
boost-iostreams-1.66.0-10.el8.x86_64
[root@lab-rhel8-1 ~]# ldd /usr/lib64/libboost_iostreams.so.1.66.0 | grep lzma | wc -l
0

Actual results:
0

Expected results:
1
