Hi all,
Forgot the Changelog...

v1 -> v2:
- change wording of Boost.System Helptext to better reflect its current functionality and discourage
people from selecting it if not really necessary.
- split off patch for libcpprestsdk which is the only package that needed the dependency added
- all other packages contain the dependency on BOOST_SYSTEM or don't need it.
