Andy,
Thank you for your reply. Is this a correct interpretation of what
you are saying:
I use Ubuntu Linux's apt-get to install boost. I need to ask Ubuntu
which flavor of GCC was used to compile boost (c++98 or c++11). Then,
when I build my applications using GCC I must use the same flavor.
For example, if Ubuntu compiled boost with c++98, I cannot write a
c++11 application that uses system-provided boost libraries.
Thank you again,
Chris
