Can you please consider this problem in the build environment for Debian stretch packages?

(don' t know how to add when creating the issue)

[dnsmichi]

Debian Backports repository included?

[bugvillage]

no.
with stretch-backports the problem would not occur (seen on other servers)
should it be assumed on the "oldstable" release that backports are always installed?

[dnsmichi]

Debian Stretch requires the Backports repository with 2.11 - for the Boost package dependency.

This is noted in the Upgrading docs as well as the steps are highlighted inside the installation docs as always.

OK
(and sorry for not going there first, and: thanks for packaging newer libboost for jessie to make it available)
