Title:
  wrong check for boost libraries in configure.ac

Status in Nux:
  Triaged
Status in nux package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  The configure.ac file checks for the presence of various Boost
  libraries by checking the presence of certain header files.
  Unfortunately, Boost packaging has changed so that headers come from a
  different package than development library binaries do, so you get a
  failure in 'make check' when the boost packages are noit installed,
  even though the configure thinks they are installed.

  For example, Nux's configure.ac checks for the presence of
  boost/filesystem/fstream.hpp to see if boost_filesystem.so is present,
  but the header comes from libboost1.XX-dev and the library from the
  libboost-filesystem1.XX-dev package.
