> Why not fix it in several steps? :
1) rename devel/boost to devel/boost-134
2) switch all ports depending on devel/boost to devel/boost-134
3) check-in boost-1.37 as devel/boost
4) have enough time to fix applications depending on boost-1.34 one-by-one
This introduces another level of indirection - a common way to solve issues
like that
Sincerely,
Alexander Churanov
