error in viper

 

I get this error message when I try to run the test program for VIPER:

walker@box227 ~/FENICS/viper/src/demo
$ python test.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "test.py", line 1, in <module>
    from dolfin import *
File "/home/walker/build/lib/python2.5/site-packages/dolfin/__init__.py", line 11, in <module>
    import cpp
File "/home/walker/build/lib/python2.5/site-packages/dolfin/cpp.py", line 31, in <module>
    import _cpp
ImportError: libboost_program_options-gcc41-mt-1_38.so.1.38.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
=========================

The reason there is no such file is because I have version 1.39 of boost installed. Shouldn't viper be able to work with the newest version? Or better yet, shouldn't it be able to work with the symbolic link that does NOT contain version info?
