I want to update the Norwegian translation, so I tried to build LyX.
It has been a long time since last time, so no surprise I had to
re-download from svn. (svn up worked, but the autogen+configure+compile
did not work from there. It is always like that after a half-year break.)
I tried compiling without included boost, because I have boost
1.36 from debian. This happened:
...
rm -f liblyxsupport.a
ar cru liblyxsupport.a FileMonitor.o convert.o debug.o docstream.o
docstring.o environment.o FileName.o filetools.o ForkedCalls.o gettext.o
gzstream.o kill.o lassert.o lstrings.o lyxtime.o Messages.o os.o Path.o
Package.o qstring_helpers.o socktools.o Systemcall.o SignalSlot.o
SignalSlotPrivate.o Timeout.o userinfo.o unicode.o -lboost_signals
ar: -lboost_signals: No such file or directory
make[5]: *** [liblyxsupport.a] Error 1
make[5]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/lyx-build4/src/support'
Hm - I have a package libboost-signals1.36-dev which provides
/usr/lib/libboost_signals.a and /usr/lib/libboost_signals-mt.a ?
Now, this is just a build so I can update a translation, not for actual
use. So I went with the supplied boost for now. Still, could be
interesting to know if I did something wrong here.
