Broadly speaking (beyond just Fedora), there's enough variability in the potential names of Boost libraries that a package's configuration needs the ability to specify a Boost library suffix. It sounds like your package's configuration is trying to be clever and divine the required suffix--and it's failing and falling back to no suffix. If your package's configuration won't let you specify a suffix, the most expedient thing to do may be just to hack it on. But an upstream-worthy patch would add a means to specify an arbitrary suffix. Also, -mt is a saner default than no suffix at all. -- Braden McDaniel <braden@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
