build dependency to boost version >= 1.35
Hello
I created a PPA and tried to upload my source package (for Jaunty), what worked great. However, building fails because of build dependency errors. It depends on boost-thread version 1.35 or higher. So my build-dependency line looks like this:
libboost-thread-dev (>=1.35.0) | libboost-
Jaunty offers a libboost-thread-dev metapackage which will install version 1.34.0. However, there are libboost-
The first part is just so I don't need to change the build dependencies when building for karmic (the meta package there points to a newer version). Also, 1.37 is more recomended than 1.35. Therefore, it's first in the line. However, if 1.35 is already installed, that's fine with me.

log output: libboost-
I now want to know how to make my package correctly depend on either of 1.37 or 1.35.
Thanks in advance.
