+Boost provides free peer-reviewed portable C++ source libraries. 
+The emphasis is on libraries that work well with the C++ Standard 
+Library. One goal is to establish "existing practice" and provide 
+reference implementations so that the Boost libraries are suitable 
+for eventual standardization.
+
+If you do not want to build with icu4c support, than you'll need
+to pass ICU="NO" to the build-script.

+# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE:
+# The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description.  Line
+# up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and the '|'
+# on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in.  You must
+# make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct.  It's also
+# customary to leave one space after the ':'.

+boost: boost (Boost C++ Libraries)
+boost:
+boost: Boost provides free peer-reviewed portable C++ source libraries
+boost: The emphasis is on libraries that work well with the C++ Standard
+boost: Library.  One goal is to establish "existing practice" and provide
+boost: reference implementations so that the Boost libraries are suitable
+boost: for eventual standardization.
