Doesn't compile on FreeBSD 8

[oparoz]

Compilation stops with:

g++46 -shared -o v8.so v8_handle.o v8_exception.o v8_try_catch.o v8_v8.o v8.o v8_template.o v8_message.o v8_object.o v8_script.o v8_callbacks.o v8_locker.oms/libv8-3.3.10.4/lib/libv8/build/v8 -Wl,-R/usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p290@rails3/gems/libv8-3.3.10.4/lib/libv8/build/v8 -L. -L/usr/local/rvm/rubies/rucal/rvm/rubies/ruby-1.9.2-p290/lib -lruby  -lthr -lrt -lcrypt -lm   -lc -lv8 -lpthread
/usr/local/bin/ld: error: cannot find -lv8
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
*** Error code 1

Any ideas?

If you could submit a Vagrantfile demostrating the problem, this would be extremely helpful.

Sure, where can I find it? I only see a gem_make.out

I was having the same issue and racking my brain on how to force it to use the /usr/ports/lang/v8 I had already installed. I noticed that the errors where looking in /opt/local/lib, which is not a FreeBSDism by any means. I could not figure out how to change the location of the opt-dir, so I decided to give in and run:

sudo ln -s /usr /opt

After doing that, it found the libv8 libraries I had installed from the ports, and Bob's my uncle.
