When trying to install rosjava using this link: http://www.ros.org/wiki/fuerte/Installation/OSX/Homebrew/Source

I get to the step where I run the command:

make -j8

This command fails with the following output:

Can anyone advise how I can fix this error? I am using osx 10.6.8 and the boost version thats installed is 1.49.0.

I have seen this problem with boost 1.5.0, the problem is that boost_system is not being linked against. Can you confirm the boost version? You would need to modify the rostime CMakeLists.txt to include target_link_libraries(rostime boost_system)

I have confirmed that I am using boost 1.49.0 could you explain which CMakeLists.txt to edit?

I think this is a duplicate of:

http://answers.ros.org/question/42167/error-building-fuerte-on-osx/

I think this needs to be fixed upstream, but ensuring you are using boost 1.49 should fix the problem.

If you can confirm that you are not using boost 1.50 or something like that then it might be a different underlying problem.

EDIT: Try this patch (you can apply it manually or using git apply <patch>):

diff --git a/rostime/CMakeLists.txt b/rostime/CMakeLists.txt

I have confirmed that I am using Boost 1.49.0. I saw that post and removed boost 1.50.0 and then installed 1.49

When i run: brew install boost Error: boost-1.49.0 already installed

Ok, I'll see if I can reproduce the problem on my VM.
