OS: Ubuntu 12.04 64-bit

ROS version: Hydro

GCC version: 4.6.3

I've been having getting some nasty linking errors when trying to use both jsonreader and ros subscriber nodes. I have boiled the problem in the program to the code below. Simply commenting out the subscriber assignment or the jsonspirit:: read call the program will build fine, it is only when both are compiled that I get the error at the bottom of this post. As far as I could find, it seems like it might be an inheritance problem with both jsonspiritreader and ROS both having some non virtual dependency that causes some sort of conflict. I could be wrong.

int main(int argc, char* argv[]) 
{
    ros::init(argc, argv, "test_node");
    ros::NodeHandle n;
    ros::Subscriber sub ;
    sub = n.subscribe("message", 3, callback);

    ifstream foo;

    json_spirit::Value bar;

    json_spirit::read(foo, bar);
}

Linker error:
