Dear Maintainer,

amule depends on versioned boost1.83 packages. boost1.83 is superseded
by boost1.90, which is now the default in Debian. boost1.83 will be
removed from the Debian archive soon (see https://bugs.debian.org/1134582).

Please switch the build-depends and depends from versioned boost1.83
packages to the unversioned (default) boost packages, for example:

  libboost1.83-dev            -> libboost-dev
  libboost-thread1.83-dev     -> libboost-thread-dev
  libboost-filesystem1.83-dev -> libboost-filesystem-dev
  libboost-iostreams1.83-dev  -> libboost-iostreams-dev
  libboost-chrono1.83-dev     -> libboost-chrono-dev
  libboost-random1.83-dev     -> libboost-random-dev
  libboost-regex1.83-dev      -> libboost-regex-dev
  libboost-program-options1.83-dev -> libboost-program-options-dev
  libboost-system1.83-dev     -> libboost-system-dev
  (etc.)

Using unversioned packages means that your package will be part of the
normal boost transition process when a new boost version becomes the
default in Debian.

Please also adjust autopkg tests and test dependencies if needed.

Thanks,

Anton
