6375	statically linking isn't possible	peterlohse@…	Beman Dawes	"Hello,

I have a problem. If a compiler with -lboost-filesystem, then is no problem, but if I compile with -lboost-filesystem and -static, there is this error:
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/4.4.5/../../../../x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: cannot find -lboost_filesystem

I have test it with -L/usr/lib64/boost-1_46, but the same error.

OS: Gentoo

Please help."	Bugs	closed	To Be Determined	filesystem	Boost 1.46.0	Problem	fixed
