Hello,I am trying to compile LaserBoy on Linux and I get an error:

LaserBoy_includes.hpp:72:10: fatal error: boost/iostreams/stream.hpp: No such file or directory
   72 | #include <boost/iostreams/stream.hpp>

This is on Nobara Linux.Any Idea what I can do?Thanks

So, I made some progress installing boost  But now I get an error saying that libboost_filesystem is incompatible:

/usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/12/../../../libboost_filesystem.so when searching for -lboost_filesystem
/usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /lib/libboost_filesystem.so when searching for -lboost_filesystem
/usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/lib/libboost_filesystem.so when searching for -lboost_filesystem
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lboost_filesystem

Ok. I will look into this and get back to you.

Welcome to the LaserBoy Forum!

Can you tell me what steps you took to install Boost?

I use Ubuntu so I installed it like this:

# sudo apt install libboost-all-dev

You should be able to find the boost lib headers in the include path.

# whereis boost

boost: /usr/include/boost
