Undefined Reference using Cereal_Port, -l doesn't fix

Hello, I'm currently writing two ros_nodes. One is finished, and captures data from a gyro. It uses the ros cereal_port library found in the following stack: /opt/ros/fuerte/stacks/serial_communication/cereal_port/lib

I have no issues with this node compiling, and it runs perfectly in Fuerte on Ubuntu 12.04 precise.

I'm now trying to use the cereal_port library in another package, but I keep getting undefined references in libcereal_port.so to various boost functions. I've been at this for 2 days now, and I don't understand why adding -lboost_thread-mt is not enough for the undefined reference to be resolved. I've validated that the path/file for libboost_thread-mt.so exist, but I cannot eliminate the problem.

Here are the manifest.xml and CMakeLists.txt for the gyro rosnode that is currently compiling and executing properly:

To answer my own question, I had to edit the CMakeLists.txt file for the cereal_port library itself, and rebuild it. I added the following lines to the cereal_port CMakeLists.txt:

rosbuild_add_boost_directories()
rosbuild_add_library(cereal_port src/CerealPort.cpp)
rosbuild_link_boost(cereal_port thread)

I must not have been using any of the functions in the cereal_port library that depended on boost in the first rosnode I wrote that used cereal_port. I'm not sure why a ROS package I installed using rosdep install wouldn't have the proper dependencies linked correctly.
