Bug Description

In Ubuntu Gutsy, the package python-tagpy depends on an old version of libboost-python, which is not in Gutsy repositories anymore. An update would be to simply bump the dependency to a newer version or change versioning of libboost-python to have a package without a version in its name, thus making it possible for python-tagpy to depend just on libboost-python, not on libboost-python1.33 or so.

This can't easily be fixed now, as the boost libraries now have single- and multi-threading variants. Once Debian fixes that, the Ubuntu package will be rebuilt and all will be good.
