Description Ana Guerrero 2024-04-25 09:35:48 UTC 
znc failed to build in openSUSE:Factory after boost had been updated to version 1.85, see

https://build.opensuse.org/package/live_build_log/openSUSE:Factory/znc/standard/x86_64

## Observation

openQA test in scenario opensuse-Tumbleweed-JeOS-for-kvm-and-xen-x86_64-jeos-extra@64bit_virtio-2G fails in
[znc](https://openqa.opensuse.org/tests/4106443/modules/znc/steps/14)

## Test suite description
Same as jeos, plus some more tests.


## Reproducible

Fails since (at least) Build [20240424](https://openqa.opensuse.org/tests/4105279)


## Expected result

Last good: [20240423](https://openqa.opensuse.org/tests/4102574) (or more recent)


## Further details

Always latest result in this scenario: [latest](https://openqa.opensuse.org/tests/latest?arch=x86_64&distri=opensuse&flavor=JeOS-for-kvm-and-xen&machine=64bit_virtio-2G&test=jeos-extra&version=Tumbleweed)

The build failure does not look related to boost but swig. From
/usr/share/doc/packages/swig/CHANGES:

Replace SWIG_Python_str_AsChar with SWIG_PyUnicode_AsUTF8AndSize

So maybe znc failed to build for a longer time and with the boost
update the old znc version cannot be linked anymore.

Indeed - Boost was likely 'just' the one that triggered the rebuild as the package turned uninstallable. Swig did not cause the rebuild to happen
