BTW, a binNMU was just requested to add Python 3.9 support.

In general, Boost supports all the Python versions currently supported
by the Python team, except that someone has to file a binNMU for them to
appear once a new Python version is packaged. To check which Python
versions are supported by a specific package version, it is enough to
check the content of the libboost-python1.71.0 package (replace 1.71.0
with future versions where applicable):

$ dpkg -L libboost-python1.71.0 | grep libboost_python
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libboost_python38.so.1.71.0
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libboost_python39.so.1.71.0

(until yesterday you did not have the python39 variant)

Does this answer your question?

Giovanni.
