I've already installed the boost packages according to the following
message. I expect that I don't need to provide -L options as I don't
need to provide the -I option to g++. As shown in my previous email,
it is due to a link problem. Therefore, it has some problem of finding
the library file. I looked at /usr/lib, but I don't find any library
libboost*.so. I'm wondering if the libraries are installed somewhere
else that I'm not aware of. Would you please check where libboost*.so
are installed in your ubuntu system?
