Can't compile - Checking for C++ header file asio.hpp... no

[mitscherdinger]

You need to install the libboost-dev package.

Ah, o.k.! Wiki sais:

The required libraries include:

* libsdl - Simple Direct Media Layer
* libglew - OpenGL extension utilities
* sdl-gfx - Graphics drawing primitives library for SDL
* sdl-image - Image file loading library for SDL
* vorbisfile - File loading library for the ogg vorbis format
* libvorbis - The Vorbis General Audio Compression Codec
* Boost C++ Libraries (header-file-only)
* ASIO C++ Libraries (header-file-only)

Your Linux distribution may have different package names and/or bundled differently. The list above should give enough information to search for applicable packages within your distribution's package manager.

For Ubuntu, all the required packages may be installed using this command:

sudo apt-get install g++ scons libsdl-gfx1.2-dev libsdl-image1.2-dev libsdl-net1.2-dev libvorbis-dev libglew-dev libasio-dev

The last line misses libboost-dev and I wasn't clever enough to verify it against the libraries listed above. Maybe someone could add libboost-dev to the last line...? I'm not registered.
