--------------------------------------------
Summary: configure links libboost_system.a, which Boost 1.89 and
later no longer ship
Key: THRIFT-6379
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-6379
Project: Thrift
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Build Process
Affects Versions: 0.25.0, 0.24.0
Reporter: Sylwester Lachiewicz
Fix For: 0.26.0
[configure.ac|https://github.com/apache/thrift/blob/master/configure.ac] sets
{{BOOST_SYSTEM_LDADD}} to {{$BOOST_LIB_DIR/libboost_system.a}} unconditionally.
Boost.System is header-only since 1.69, and 1.89 stopped shipping the stub
library, so the lib/cpp tests fail to link against current Boost (Homebrew
ships 1.92):
{noformat}
clang++: error: no such file or directory:
'/opt/homebrew/opt/boost/lib/libboost_system.a'
{noformat}
configure still accepts Boost 1.56, where the library is needed, so it should
link it only where it exists. The CMake build does not request the system
component and is not affected.
