Trying to compile sigil on fedora 17. ( The available version in the repos is 3.x or so!).
I have the latest cmake, qt4.8, and *all* 51 boost packages. I added /usr/lib64/boost141 to /etc/ld.so.conf.

BUT:
< many errors redacted >
AttributesPresentValidator.cpp

.text.startup+0x2f ): undefined reference to `boost::system::system_category()'
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

Some google-fu leads me to believe that there should be a specific -lboost on the gcc command line. I am not familiar with cmake and have no idea where any adjustment would be put.
HELP!.
