I did the !failsafe from #suse, and the result is here:

What does this tell ? It tells me that boost-doc & boost-devel were never installed. It also tells me that boost was not removed due to dependencies. As a result nothing was installed. It seems to me that you are being asked to downgrade some rpms. What I would do in your case is download the needed rpms if I do not already have them. Then for every rpm I am going to install rpm -e --nodeps the installed version. Then install

You can string the rpm -e command on one line like so: rpm -e --nodeps boost boost-doc boost-devel This makes it much more readable for us.
