[Quantlib-users] problems building on linux

[Tito I. <tit...@ya...>]

Hi,

I regret to ask what I'm sure will prove to be a stupid question, but...

I'm having difficulty building quantlib-0.8.1 on a redhat system.
I've built and installed boost-1.34 which the quantlib build seems to
find without difficulties during compilation.  But when it tries to
link, it seems to be using the wrong names for the libraries.
Specifically, the build looks for '-lboost_unit_test_framework'
whereas the libraries are actually named things like
'libboost_unit_test_framework-gcc34-*' Looking at the boost install
docs, this seems to be correct -
http://boost.org/more/getting_started/unix_variants.html#library_naming

I've never used boost before, but I was able to complete the
installation and build/link and run samples without issues.

Curiously, I was able to build both boost and quantlib on nt (under
mingw) without any such issues!  

I'm sure I'm missing something blatant, but I'm just not seeing
it... any help or pointers will be very much appreciated.  Thanks in
advance and regards,

     Tito.
