INstalation under debian sarge!

I also installed Salome on debian testing (code name "lenny" and I got the same problem related to libboost. So I did the same as Martin, i.e. (in /usr/lib):
ln -s libboost_thread-gcc-mt-1_32.so.1.32.0 libboost_thread-gcc-mt-1_31.so.1.31.0
ln -s libboost_signals-gcc-mt-1_32.so.1.32.0 libboost_signals-gcc-mt-1_31.so.1.31.0

All the module now load without any problem but when I run the test ("import salome-test" in the python terminal), salome crashes with the following message in the terminal:

SALOME_Session_Server: symbol lookup error: /home/fabian/opt/salome_3.2.2/VISU_3.2.2/lib/salome/libVISUEngineImpl.so: undefined symbol: _ZN5boost7signals6detail11signal_baseC2ERKNS_9function2IbNS_3anyES4_SaINS_13function_baseEEEE


So I modified the symlink of libboost-signal as follow:

 ln -s libboost_signals-gcc-1_31.so.1.31.0 -> libboost_signals-gcc-1_33_1.so.1.33.1

Now, when I run the test, salome do not crash anymore. The tests of Geometry, Mesh and Supervisor succeed, but the tests on VISU and MED fail with the following error in the python terminal:

=============  Test  VISU  and MED =============================

Traceback (most recent call last):

    return _omnipy.invoke(self, "SetCurrentStudy", _0_VISU.VISU_Gen._d_SetCurrentStudy, args)
omniORB.CORBA.INV_OBJREF: Minor: INV_OBJREF_InvokeOnNilObjRef, COMPLETED_NO.
>>>

So I guess the only "good" solution is to install libboost 1.31 from scratch.
Any other guess?

ok i fix it!
it works for debian etch and for debian sarge u dont need to install nothing extra! just create two links
ln -s libboost_thread-gcc-mt-1_32.so.1.32.0 libboost_thread-gcc-mt-1_31.so.1.31.0
ln -s libboost_signals-gcc-mt-1_32.so.1.32.0 libboost_signals-gcc-mt-1_31.so.1.31.0

in libboost directory.
thank`s and regards

Hello Martin
