boost-1.81.0.beta1 against v1.2 and v2

[userdocs]

No issues compiling this against v.2.0.8 and v1.2.18 on linux using b2

Here is my docker build method.

docker run -it -w /root -e "build_dir=/root/lt-build" -v "$HOME":/root ubuntu:jammy

apt update -y && apt install curl git build-essential libssl-dev -y

boost_version="1_81_0"
boost_beta_url="https://boostorg.jfrog.io/artifactory/main/beta/${boost_version//_/\.}.beta1/source/boost_${boost_version}_b1.tar.gz"
curl -NLk "${boost_beta_url}" --create-dirs -o "${build_dir}/boost_${boost_version}.tar.gz"
tar xf "${build_dir}/boost_${boost_version}.tar.gz" -C "${build_dir}"

pushd "${build_dir}/boost_${boost_version}/"
"${build_dir}/boost_${boost_version}/bootstrap.sh"
export BOOST_BUILD_PATH="${build_dir}/boost_${boost_version}"
echo "using gcc : $(gcc -dumpversion) : g++-$(g++ -dumpversion) ;" > "$HOME/user-config.jam"

# v2
git clone --single-branch --branch v2.0.8 --shallow-submodules --recurse-submodules --depth 1 https://github.com/arvidn/libtorrent "${build_dir}/libtorrent"

v1.2

Now how would you build Python bindings in such a setup? 🤔 Especially provided that the python interpreter is set up in a venv?

like this, except for the venv part as i don't use that method.

docker run -it -w /root -e "build_dir=/root/lt-build" -v "$HOME":/root ubuntu:jammy

apt update -y && apt install python3 python3-dev curl git build-essential libssl-dev -y
