Bug 203666: [boost::iostreams] Support for zlib, gzip and bzip2 compression
algorithms
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=203666



--- Description ---
Created attachment 161865
  --> https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=161865&action=edit
boost iostreams patch

It has been a long time that I'm struggling with this issue:

https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/boost-iostreams-from-ports-with-zlib-support
.40944/

http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_55_0/libs/iostreams/doc/installation.html

I've been writing a cross-platform application and I fortunately I cannot add
it to Ports Collections due to the dependency on those filters which won't
build on FreeBSD in the current port.

I made a patch for devel/boost-libs to add optional support for zlib, gzip and
bzip2 filters on FreeBSD. It allows user to choose whether they boost
compression filters libs should be built or not.

Thank you so much.
