Hello,

I have a problem similar to this one. I am running Ubuntu 10.04 32-bit, kernel 2.6.32.59 and gcc version 4.4.3 (Ubuntu 4.4.3-4ubuntu5.1). I am trying to compile ROS Fuerte from source against boost 1.46.1, but still getting a filesystem error during compilation. I checked that lboost_filesystem_mt is flagged in ~/ros-underlay/build/rospack/CMakeFiles/rospack.dir/link.txt. I ran

make -j8

with VERBOSE=1

The output is

Am I missing something? I didn't really understand Tully's response in the related question (to add -lboost_program_options to the linker flags exported by rospack in it's manifest)...I am kinda lost with ROS cmake files.

Thanks in advance.

So actually the CMakeFiles were pointing to an older version of Boost, even though I had set ROS_BOOST_ROOT correctly. I have symlinked the newest versions (not very clean, I know) and the compilation finished.

But that's not the end. I hardly made my way to section 1.3 - Build Higher-level/tools (Layer 2) - as described here, and having to manually install missing packages that rosdep couldn't find - and I am now stuck at compiling colladadom. I am still having problems with the boost filesystem and system libraries, with undefined references and stuff.

Actually, I wonder if someone has successfully installed ROS Fuerte against 1.46.1 - or a newer version. It seems that it is not really compatible and a lot of dependency errors happens.
