I am using a standard package from Ubuntu Maverick which must be
pretty outdated then:

Package: boost-build
Priority: optional
Section: universe/devel
Installed-Size: 2364
Maintainer: Ubuntu MOTU Developers <ubuntu-motu_at_[hidden]>
Original-Maintainer: Debian Boost Team <pkg-boost-devel_at_[hidden]>
Architecture: all
Version: 2.0-m12-2
Depends: bjam (>> 3.1.9-1)

Thanks for the tip, I will go for the sources later.

Cheers,
Andrej
