It has nothing to do with boost. You're compiling pgagent, and while compiling pgagent you get the following rather clear message: # error "Compiler threading support is not turned on. Please set the correct command line options for threading: -pthread (Linux), -pthreads (Solaris) or -mthreads (Mingw32)" Thus you need to figure out how to add "-pthreads" to compile options in cmake config of pgagent. -- Stian ________________________________ From: Boost-users <boost-users-bounces@lists.boost.org> on behalf of Dechaux Eric CEN (BCQ STIG) via Boost-users <boost-users@lists.boost.org> Sent: Thursday, January 3, 2019 2:41:54 PM To: boost-users@lists.boost.org Cc: Dechaux Eric CEN (BCQ STIG) Subject: [Boost-users] New user : Help on Solaris Hello everyone, I am a Solaris user and need to build pgAgent 4.0 on a Solaris 11.4 X86_64 box. pgAgent require boost withthreading.
