I'm trying to cross compile a simple program using libtorrent but falling foul of some settings in the boost build system. I am totally green at using boost so please excuse me if the answer is obvious.
The problem is that the link line emitted by the boost build system appears to include a hard coded reference to a NATIVE lib (/usr/lib/libdl.so) and not the one for the TARGET build system. Below is the output from the bjam command:
BOOST_ROOT = /projects/externals/libtorrent/boost_1_43_0
OS = LINUX

I did add a <linkflags> entry to the GCC entry in usr-config.jam and sure enough this did appear in the emitted link line however /usr/lib was still there too and seemed to take precedence. Does anyone know what I have to do to remove this?
Mark.
