Boost system library missing, compiling 1.9.8 on Ubuntu
I should stop probably stop switching OSes so much; it seems every time I compile the dev version a new error I can't seem to overcome comes up. Perhaps with enough experience I'll be able to figure these out myself. But, I digress.
This time, scons can't seem to find the boost system library. I have libboost-system (v 1.42) package (and the dev package) installed. And I have tried scons --config=force.
build/config.log: http://pastebin.com/na43G42b

Any ideas? Thanks in advance!

What version of Ubuntu and what package in particular?
You want to install "libboost1.42-all-dev".
You want to install "libboost1.42-all-dev".

Re: Boost system library missing, compiling 1.9.8 on Ubuntu
The easiest way to get all dependencies on Ubuntu is "sudo apt-get build-dep wesnoth-1.8". This installs all the dependencies for Wesnoth 1.8 and (bonus!) 1.9.

Re: Boost system library missing, compiling 1.9.8 on Ubuntu
Ah, that could be the issue. I wonder how I ended up with two different config.log's there. No matter, I think you are right. I just went and went to Synaptic and I had 1.42.0.1 versions of the boost libraries checked so I removed them, but that didn't solve it. I also had attempted to build version 1.47 boost libraries (from the boost official site). I had bootstrapped and installed them. I tried to remove them also using ./b2 --clean and it claimed to have removed the build targets.
Those should have been all the versions of boost libraries that ended up on the system. I should only have 1.42.0-4 versions now (from the Ubuntu repositories).
I tried scons --config=force but ended up with an identical output and config.log unfortunately. Is there a way to check that I don't have any lingering incorrect boost library versions clogging up the works?

Re: Boost system library missing, compiling 1.9.8 on Ubuntu
Since compile flags include -I/usr/include, -L/usr/lib and -lboost_system-mt it's pretty much certain that ubuntu's boost packages are used. Though I don't know much about debian/ubuntu packaging and thus how different versions of boost could have mixed up.
./b2 install will install into /usr/local by default and could have been used only if there are -I/usr/local/include/... etc switches in command line. There are provisions in wesnoth's scons script to detect such installs but /usr installs take precedence ./b2 --clean will probably not undo an install.

Re: Boost system library missing, compiling 1.9.8 on Ubuntu
You are right. Here is what /usr/local/lib looks like:
Looks like all 1.47 files are being linked to. Before I screw this up more, I should ask: how do I fix this? I was thinking of just removing all the files and perhaps reinstalling the Ubuntu versions, but I don't want to mess things up more. I've been looking into removing boost, but I haven't been able to find any more documentation that to do ./b2 --clean.

Re: Boost system library missing, compiling 1.9.8 on Ubuntu
It only ever installs headers into /usr/local/include/boost and libs into /usr/local/lib that all have names like libboost_*.so, so just deleting them will be enough.

Re: Boost system library missing, compiling 1.9.8 on Ubuntu
Loony Cyborg, you've once again saved the day. Thank you sir! I removed the libraries and headers and it's in the process of compiling now. I will try to get the installation right next time.
I greatly appreciate the help!
Cheers!
