How about using a release tarball instead? There is https://sourceforge.net/projects/asio/files/asio/1.36.0%20%28Stable%29/asio-1.36.0.tar.bz2

Yes, I didn't realize it was just shipping headers so it might not be a good fit for Yggdrasil.

if this realy only ships headers, and the headers are identical across all platforms, I guess it could be turned into a JLL with platforms = [AnyPlatform()] (i.e. a single artefact is created and used on all platforms).

@giordano any thoughts on this?

Yes, if this is a platform-independent headers-only package, then it should be AnyPlatform
