Check /usr/lib for "libboost_serialization*" to make sure that the library is installed. ls /usr/lib/libboost_serial* If not, it's probably in a separate RPM for your system... I forget offhand how this is done on Fedora. I currently only have a build system setup for FC7 packages. FC8 is on the todo list. Note that FC8 likely has a newer version of Boost than FC7. When it comes to C++ libraries, the safest way to deal with these kinds of library issues sometimes is to recompile on your own machine. You can do this relatively easily yourself, as long as you have all the dependencies installed, by downloading the Barry .src.rpm from SourceForge, and building: rpm -i barry-0.12-1.fc7.src.rpm cd /usr/src/redhat/SPECS rpmbuild -ba barry.spec --with gui --with opensync The two --with options are optional. See http://netdirect.ca/software/packages/barry/install.php for a list of dependencies. - Chris ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by the 2008 JavaOne(SM) Conference Don't miss this year's exciting event.
