Just add the following on the bjam command line: --layout=system
While this solves the library naming issue on the developer's system, it does not address the problem of someone else compiling the code on their system. In this case the user's self-compiled or distributor-provided version will most likely not have used this option, and the developer will have no prior knowledge of the toolchain in use (as I described in my earlier post). This is a very important use-case which desperately needs a reliable solution, such as pkg-config support. Otherwise, free software/open-source software has a terrible time trying to link to Boost libraries. Regards, Roger -- .''`.
