[Boost-users] Multiple definitions on SuSE 10.1/GCC 4.1.0

Hey there! We have trouble compiling our project with Boost 1.33 (as of SuSE 10.1). We tried to compile our project, which uses the serialization capabilities of Boost to serialize C++ objects into MPI messages. On IA32, everything works fine with Boost 1.34-rc1 (Debian, kernel 2.6.15.7). However, on my AMD machine with SuSE 10.1 and Boost 1.33, we get linker errors related to multiple definitions of templates:

/proj.stand/klemm/evolFIR-MPI/src/share/Component.o:/proj.stand/klemm/evolFIR-MPI/src/Component.cpp:24: multiple definition of `boost::archive::det /proj.stand/klemm/evolFIR-MPI/src/share/AddOperator.o:/proj.stand/klemm/evolFIR-MPI/src/AddOperator.cpp:128: first defined here /proj.stand/klemm/evolFIR-MPI/src/share/DelayOperator.o: In function `destroy

The full log of errors is at the end of this message. The command used for linking is: /opt/mpich/ch-p4//bin/mpiCC -shared /proj.stand/klemm/evolFIR-MPI/src/share/AddOperator.o /proj.stand/klemm/evolFIR-MPI/src/share/Component.o /proj.stand/klemm/evolFIR-MPI/src/share/DelayOperator.o /proj.stand/klemm/evolFIR-MPI/src/share/Iterator.o /proj.stand/klemm/evolFIR-MPI/src/share/MapPolynom.o /proj.stand/klemm/evolFIR-MPI/src/share/MapPolynomIterator.o /proj.stand/klemm/evolFIR-MPI/src/share/MulOperator.o /proj.stand/klemm/evolFIR-MPI/src/share/Operator.o /proj.stand/klemm/evolFIR-MPI/src/share/PolyNormalizator.o /proj.stand/klemm/evolFIR-MPI/src/share/Polynom.o /proj.stand/klemm/evolFIR-MPI/src/share/ShiftOperator.o /proj.stand/klemm/evolFIR-MPI/src/share/XExtractor.o /proj.stand/klemm/evolFIR-MPI/src/share/NTLAdaptor.o /proj.stand/klemm/evolFIR-MPI/src/share/polycommon.o /proj.stand/klemm/evolFIR-MPI/src/share/RandomNumberPool.o -o /proj.stand/klemm/evolFIR-MPI//lib/libpoly.so Replacing mpiCC with g++ does not help either (and on IA32 this command works well). I also tried to use a self-compiled version of Boost on the AMD (Boost 1.34-rc1) but it showed the same compiler errors. I don't think it's a problem with our program, as in IA32 everything works as expected. Any hints? Thanks in advance! Best regards -michael Full log or error messages:
