New description:
As noted on sage-support, the sage-5.0 '''binary''' `sage-5.0-linux-32bit-
fedora_release_16_verne_-i686-Linux.tar.gz` requires the boost library
`libboost_unit_test_framework` at runtime, since the binary was built on a
machine with that library available. PolyBoRi checks for
`-lboost_unit_test_framework` and links against it if available.
This is because of the PolyBoRi upgrade to version 0.8.1. The older
PolyBoRi in sage-4.8 did not do this.
There are two solutions:
1. Fix PolyBoRi not to link against `-lboost_unit_test_framework` when
SAGE_FAT_BINARY=yes.
2. Add the boost library to Sage (currently, only the boost headers are
installed).
The following '''spkg''' implements the first solution:
