#14365: Boost build does not properly symlink boost libs ----------------------------------------+----------------------------------- Reporter: dane.springmeyer@gmail.com | Owner: macports-tickets@lists.macosforge.org Type: defect | Status: new Priority: High | Milestone: Port Bugs Component: ports | Version: 1.6.0 Keywords: boost symlink libs .dylib | ----------------------------------------+----------------------------------- The Port install of Boost 1_34_1 places 208 libboost* library files in /opt/local/lib. For each boost library 4 .dylib files are created and another 8 symlinks/aliases to those dynamic libraries. After installing boost using macports on 10.5.2 using the workaround for the boost bug here: * Tickets: #13714 it appears that all the symlinks created point to a screwy location. For example here is the output of the ls command for the libboost_filesystem: {{{ springmeyer:lib spring$ ls -l libboost_filesystem* -rw-r--r-- 2 root admin 81996 Feb 17 10:59 libboost_filesystem-1_34_1.a -rwxr-xr-x 2 root admin 55432 Feb 17 10:59 libboost_filesystem-1_34_1.dylib -rw-r--r-- 2 root admin 491252 Feb 17 10:59 libboost_filesystem-d-1_34_1.a -rwxr-xr-x 2 root admin 135880 Feb 17 10:59 libboost_filesystem-d-1_34_1.dylib lrwxr-xr-x 1 root admin 165 Feb 17 11:00 libboost_filesystem-d.a -> /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_devel_boost/work/destroot/opt/local/lib/libboost_filesystem-d-1_34_1.a lrwxr-xr-x 1 root admin 169 Feb 17 11:00 libboost_filesystem-d.dylib -> /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_devel_boost/work/destroot/opt/local/lib/libboost_filesystem-d-1_34_1.dylib -rw-r--r-- 2 root admin 81996 Feb 17 10:59 libboost_filesystem- mt-1_34_1.a -rwxr-xr-x 2 root admin 55432 Feb 17 10:59 libboost_filesystem- mt-1_34_1.dylib -rw-r--r-- 2 root admin 491252 Feb 17 10:59 libboost_filesystem- mt-d-1_34_1.a -rwxr-xr-x 2 root admin 135960 Feb 17 10:59 libboost_filesystem- mt-d-1_34_1.dylib lrwxr-xr-x 1 root admin 168 Feb 17 11:00 libboost_filesystem-mt-d.a -> /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_devel_boost/work/destroot/opt/local/lib /libboost_filesystem-mt-d-1_34_1.a lrwxr-xr-x 1 root admin 172 Feb 17 11:00 libboost_filesystem- mt-d.dylib -> /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_devel_boost/work/destroot/opt/local/lib /libboost_filesystem-mt-d-1_34_1.dylib lrwxr-xr-x 1 root admin 166 Feb 17 11:00 libboost_filesystem-mt.a -> /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_devel_boost/work/destroot/opt/local/lib /libboost_filesystem-mt-1_34_1.a lrwxr-xr-x 1 root admin 35 Feb 17 11:50 libboost_filesystem- mt.dylib -> libboost_filesystem-mt-1_34_1.dylib lrwxr-xr-x 1 root admin 163 Feb 17 11:00 libboost_filesystem.a -> /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_devel_boost/work/destroot/opt/local/lib/libboost_filesystem-1_34_1.a lrwxr-xr-x 1 root admin 35 Feb 17 11:54 libboost_filesystem.dylib -> libboost_filesystem-mt-1_34_1.dylib }}} -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/ticket/14365> MacPorts </projects/macports> Ports system for Mac OS
