mapnik-org/mapnik — Issue #26: FreeBSD build
Author: artemp
Created: 2011-10-11 07:31:10+00:00
State: open
Labels: Scons_Build_Scripts

FreeBSD builds and installs boost libraries with posix threads but without the -mt suffix.

The following changes were necessary for mapnik components to build on FreeBSD. I'm just signalling the breakage: a real check or some added logic that needs to be put into the SConstruct files (by someone more well-versed than I in scons). This is just a hackish change.
