I'm uploading funguloids now, thanks.
>From http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_54_0/doc/html/thread/build.html: Boost.Thread depends on some non header-only libraries. Boost.System: This dependency is mandatory and you will need to link with the library. Since Boost has no pkg-config or similar mechanism (as other programs have, e.g. sdl2-config), as far as I can tell, it's up to the users of the library to link against Boost::System. So for me it seems natural which is OGRE the one which should do what it's doing now (telling users of the library that they should also link agains blah and blah, as it's already done for freeimage library for example), not the users of OGRE (e.g. funguloids) and not Boost (since they don't have the pkg-config-like mechanism). Don't you agree with this? I don't know what you propose to do instead in Boost, if they don't have this pkg-config-like mechanism. Cheers. -- Manuel A.
