See http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_45_0/more/getting_started/unix-variants.html#library-naming But ATM you can just do -lboost_filesystem -lboost_system. The problem is that using some parts of filesystem will mean you also need to link to system. Olaf -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
