Different Boost versions between static release and configuration #7

Closed angea closed 4 years ago

angea commented 4 years ago

The default configuration uses Boost 1.57.0, while the static release uses 1.65.1.

Running a binary of the static release gives this error message:

./md5_fastcoll: error while loading shared libraries: libboost_filesystem.so.1.65.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Either can be used, but you should not reuse generated files between different boost versions.

Recommended version is 1.65.1. *

*(Unless you are an expert and want to use some of the archived generated files related to special attacks)

Release v1.2 was faulty (accidentally linked to dynamic system boost libraries 1.65.1), release v1.2a is actually statically linked and again to default boost version 1.57.0.
