Hi, I just tried to compile an application which uses libboost_python and that failed because libboost_python expect the application to get linked against /usr/lib/libpython2.4.so.1.0, but it is getting linked against /usr/lib/libpython2.5.so.1.0 So please rebuild boost ASAP (before Fedora 7 gets released) also since libboost_python needs symbols from /usr/lib/libpython.so it should get linked against it. If this had been done earlier then this breakage would have been caught way earlier too, through rpm deps breaking.
Created attachment 150821 [details] PATCH fixing boost compilation on x86_64 with python 2.5 I found this patch from opensuse, which fixes compiling boost on x86_64 with python 2.5
Hey Hans. I rebuilt boost-1.33.1-12, it's too late for fc7t3 but will be in fc7. This should show up on the rawhide build lists soon. The build issue with linking libboost_python is on hold for the moment. best, benjamin

Or you mean the fact that -lpython should be added to the libboost_python LDFLAGS/LIBS? If that is what you mean I think thats best tracked in the review bug, and this one can be closed.

I can confirm this is fixed, closing
