lib system not found in /lib64

Hi,

Configuration fails when trying to ./waf configure
My environment is a Ubuntu 14.04 with NFD, ndn-cxx, ndn-cpp, ndn-tools, and Boost libraries installed. In all of the above, the step Checking boost libs works. On the ndnfs-port I get the error lib system not found in /lib64.

Do you have a fix for this issue please?

Thanks in advance

You may have multiple versions of boost libraries installed. I would recommend removing all manually installed ones.

In some cases, you also need to explicitly specify where the libraries are installed (this still can create issues):

 ./waf configure --boost-libs=/path/to/folder/with/lib

Hi Alex,
Thanks for the quick reply.
I checked my Boost libraries with
$ dpkg -S /usr/include/boost/version.hpp
libboost1.54-dev: /usr/include/boost/version.hpp

Uninstalled with
$ sudo apt-get autoremove libboost1.54-dev

And reinstalled again with
$ sudo apt-get install libboost-all-dev

After getting the same error, I tried these instructions:
In /usr do:
sudo ln -s lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ lib64
and then it works:
./waf configure --boost-libs=/usr/lib64
and it worked.

Thanks again.
