You can't simply obsolete library versions with a different SONAME, that would break existing users.
This stuff was only installed because I needed boost-devel (for the header-only stuff). Nothing else needs it. So it should not be kept forever. There are pretty primitive package managers that can do this just fine.
This has nothing to do with the package manager really, but to the very purpose of the library packaging policy, allow different library versions to be installed in parallel. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+help@opensuse.org
