1. [Rename the formula](Rename-A-Formula.md) from e.g. `boost.rb` to e.g. `boost@1.61.rb` and, in the same pull request, add an alias named `boost`. This should not require any `revision`ing or significant formula modification beyond the formula name.
-2. Add the new version formula e.g. `boost@1.62.rb`
+2. Add the new `keg_only` version formula e.g. `boost@1.62.rb`
3. Tap authors should have their `depends_on "boost"` updated to `depends_on "boost@1.61"` or `depends_on "boost@1.62"`.
-4. Modify the `boost` alias to point to `boost@1.62.rb`. Any formulae that need the old version of `boost` should have their `depends_on "boost"` to be updated to `depends_on "boost@1.61"`.
+4. Modify the `boost` alias to point to `boost@1.62.rb`. Any formulae that need the old version of `boost` should have their `depends_on "boost"` to be updated to `depends_on "boost@1.61"`. `boost@1.62.rb` should no longer be `keg_only` and `boost@1.61.rb` should become `keg_only`.
5. When `boost@1.62` has two major/minor versions newer than it (e.g. `boost@1.64`) then consider removing `boost@1.62.rb` and anything that depends on it.
