It's not the suffix; my guess is that you have Boost_USE_STATIC_LIBS
set to OFF
.
I have it set to ON, hence the assumption that it has something to do with the suffix - at the 1.85.0 release tag the names didn't yet have the suffix iirc and the change to add the HINT actually allowed it to build.
As you can see here
the "(static)" suffix is only added to the version when DEFINED Boost_USE_STATIC_LIBS AND NOT Boost_USE_STATIC_LIBS
.
Although I'm not sure why the version is 1.85.0, because the static/shared change has been added after 1.85 was released. So the version should be 1.86.0 when using a current develop or master.
I just updated the cmake
submodule, not the entire tree. Maybe that was the problem? I have reverted to the 1.85.0 version and applied only the hint change and it builds again. Sorry, I'm currently doing this as a side project to get rid of our old way of managing some third party dependencies and have limited time to dig into it. Trying to be as helpful as I can :)
Updating just the cmake module should have worked; at this point I have no idea where the problem might be. As I said above, the version is only appended " (static)" so that it can appear in the error message, and this only happens when Boost_USE_STATIC_LIBS is OFF.
I guess I'll close this for now - maybe it was a caching issue. Will let you know once I try to update to next release
It seems that this change breaks version matching: 440dd10f57f86a91c9d0ae23f096f343fdd004cb
The suffix means it's not an exact match. I doubt that was the intended effect?
