Hi Bill,

I'm afraid the build failed, but not sure the problem was Boost. I replaced the wsjtx.patch file in the unzipped dir with yours. Part of the error messaging below...

Hi Bill,

I see what you have done and will use the modified wsjtx.patch file in
a new build and report back.

Thanks,

Greg

Hi Greg,

I think you will hit another issue with the required Boost C++ library
version. This may not be so easy to fix. Again I need to investigate why
we set Boost v1.63 as the minimum version, Debian 9 repos only have
v1.62. In this case I think it will be some runtime behaviour of the
Boost::log library that was only introduced in v1.63. I would like to
maintain backwards compatibility with Debian 9 as it is LTS until June
2022 rather than requiring users to build local versions of libraries
like Boost.
