Changes the Ubuntu 14.04 dependancy libboost-all-dev to libboost-dev #213

Closed foolsh closed 7 years ago

foolsh commented 7 years ago

This fixes an issue when following the instruction to install dependencies for Ubuntu 14.04, this issue did not effect version 16.04. However the fix for 14.04 works just as well for 16.04, outlined at this ask Ubuntu thread; http://askubuntu.com/questions/670924/how-to-install-boost-on-ubuntu-14-04

The issue it fixes has an example here http://pastebin.com/AAgvYSbQ blocking the install of libboost1.54 development files.

This fix was tested on 16.04 and 14.04 both of which installed the dependencies need for the nheqminer.

Wait this isn't completely fixed this way, retracting this pull request

The "fix" is apparently a combination of using aptitude to add one libboost1.54-* library at a time and having aptitude downgrade packages until dependencies are met and resolved. Perhaps 14.04 should be removed from the build instructions?
