Yes, DD, I remember. But I thought they removed ncmpcpp from the repos those days, or do I mix up something? There is still ncmpc ... well, I don't use MPD so I really don't know what's going on in Debianland wrt these ncurses applications.
Back to topic, let's check the configure.ac file and there we see
AS_IF([test -z "${BOOST_LIB_SUFFIX+x}"], [BOOST_LIB_SUFFIX=-mt])
AC_ARG_VAR([BOOST_LIB_SUFFIX], [Boost library name suffix [default=-mt]])
let's remove the -mt there, so it is:
Code: Select all
AS_IF([test -z "${BOOST_LIB_SUFFIX+x}"], [BOOST_LIB_SUFFIX=])
AC_ARG_VAR([BOOST_LIB_SUFFIX], [Boost library name suffix [default=]])
it will not show any errors -- but for the next items (boost.locale, ...) it will. I don't know if it has to do with the --includedir=/usr/include (I did a manual check with ./configure --includedir=/usr/include which prints errors about missing libraries that are clearly installed in /usr/include/boost/...) Googling for related stuff shows similar problems (also in Arch, ubuntu, Fedora,)
Commenting the boost parts in configure.ac will finalize the ./configure stage but later complain about "readline" missing (which is bullshit!)
Spent an hour with this now and put it aside.
