Overview

Request 546444 accepted

- re-enable Python 2 by default. It's still conditional, but
remains enabled by default. This can be disabled in project
config.
- build Python 2 conditionally
- Use multibuild setup - build no-dependency libraries in the
base package and build the rest of the compiled libraries in
the main variant. This should speed up bootstrapping.
- boost-devel not built by default anymore.
- libboost_headers-devel now provides boost-devel for legacy
dependencies. If you need compiled boost libraries depend on
the current compiled devel subpackage.
- run %fdupes only on the header files and documentation
- drop build dependencies on gcc-fortran, chrpath.

boost-devel not built by default anymore.

Ah, that's why nothing builds any longer.

This was pre-announced loong ago already: https://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-factory/2017-02/msg00024.html

This should also right away give the information how to fix your things (nothing builds any longer is definitively not true after all - the entire Tumblweed distro builds with these boost packages)

Almost everything builds in Factory. Bugs were filed against things that were broken - see dependencies on boo#1062583

Also, boost-devel is now provided by libboost_headers-devel. This is the entire boost headers and only thing that is missing are the binary libraries. Binary libraries are a minority of Boost.

So, you can still BR: boost-devel, but you will now get libboost_headers-devel. So things will continue to build, but maybe not link unless you specify which linktime stuff you actually need.
