That's normal, all libs are prefixed with lib.

Yes, you did. How can you untar to /usr/share - with sudo? Don't do
that. Keep /usr for package-installed things, use /usr/local/ for things
you install by hand. Boost is packaged, run this to install all
necessary  packages:

sudo apt-get install scons libqt3-mt-dev qt3-dev-tools freeglut3-dev
libboost-date-time-dev libboost-filesystem-dev libboost-thread-dev
libboost-regex-dev fakeroot dpkg-dev build-essential g++
libboost-iostreams-dev liblog4cxx9-dev python-dev libboost-python-dev
ipython python-matplotlib

(from http://yade.wikia.com/wiki/Installation_of_yade_on_debian_/_ubuntu)

The running scons will work.

Read some decent tutorial on UNIX/Linux command-line, filesystem layout
and so on, you will need that further way down.
