This looks rather scary to me.

Since libboost-dev (currently) directly depends on libboost1.58-dev,
there is no need to replace the dependency on libboost-dev with
libboost1.58-dev.

In contrary: It would make very future boost transition rather awkward
and would make additional source-ful uploads necessary. So I strongly
recommend to _not_ apply that part of the patch as it makes things
worse.
