The Boost headers contain heavy templates, which compile into build-time classes, but most of these headers have no associated library files (e.g. the smart_ptr 'library' consists only of header files, not a single .c/.cpp file compiling into a .so).
Still, I agree with Neil that the Debian-supplied header files should be used at build-time. Jan-Pascal -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
