Hi(gh)!

After (guess what) another system crash and re-installation of Linux 
(Debian aptosid "Geras", kernel 2.6.37) I once more tried to compile 3.7 
RC3 (I refrained from using the latest version, as it needs at least 
kernel 2.6.8).

So I followed the instructions in INSTALL, did ./configure 
COMPILED_BY="your name <email@address>" (of course with my name and 
e-mail address)... after installing libboost1.50-dev all went fine... 
except for that nasty message towards the end:

configure: error: in 
`/media/disk1part11/software/downloads/Raytracing/povray-3.7.0.RC3':
configure: error: cannot link with the boost thread library

What went wrong? The configure routine referred me to config.log for 
more details - but I simply cannot make out where to look in that huge 
data sheet!

The first error showing up there is a wrong call of gcc - with -V 
instead of -v! How can I get rid of this? Is my gcc outdated?

See you in Khyberspace!
