Are you sure? It doesn't seem to be linked to the boost libs, so the boost dep is probably there for something else.

The boost package only contain header files, static libs and documentation, so there is absolutely no reason to have an install dependency on boost. I think that vtk is statically linked against boost, which should be changed to link dynamically for obvious reasons.

Thanks for reporting. You may or may not be right about that, so I'll have to take a closer look at this. There are several open bugs of vtk now since I adopted it off of Andrzej some months ago, so this will have to wait.
