[cfarm-users] Is there a stanrdard set of installed stuff on cfarm machines?

[Martin Guy]

Hi
   I was wondering if there is, or could be, a standard set of utilities 
and libraries installed on cfarm machines. For example I'm trying to 
compile and link against libboost_thread, but find it is installed on 
some but not others: some say

boost.cpp:2:10: fatal error: boost/thread.hpp: No such file or directory

and others say

/usr/bin/ld: /tmp/ccYSjo91.o: undefined reference to symbol 
'_ZN5boost6system15system_categoryEv'
//usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libboost_system.so.1.62.0: error adding 
symbols: DSO missing from command line

I mean, I can install a local copy on each target machine with 
--prefix=$HOME but it seems a waste of disk space for the machines that 
already have the necessary build dependencies installed.

Thanks for the best portability test engine in the world
