Bug Description

Binary package hint: libboost-test1.34.1

The Boost unit test library is missing some shared library links for gcc41:

[529 rhys@gauss ~]$ ls -1 /usr/lib/libboost_unit_test_framework*
/usr/lib/libboost_unit_test_framework.a
/usr/lib/libboost_unit_test_framework-gcc41-1_34_1.so.1.34.1
/usr/lib/libboost_unit_test_framework-gcc41-mt-1_34_1.so.1.34.1
/usr/lib/libboost_unit_test_framework-gcc42-1_34_1.a
/usr/lib/libboost_unit_test_framework-gcc42-1_34_1.so
/usr/lib/libboost_unit_test_framework-gcc42-1_34_1.so.1.34.1
/usr/lib/libboost_unit_test_framework-gcc42-mt-1_34_1.a
/usr/lib/libboost_unit_test_framework-gcc42-mt-1_34_1.so
/usr/lib/libboost_unit_test_framework-gcc42-mt-1_34_1.so.1.34.1
/usr/lib/libboost_unit_test_framework-mt.a
/usr/lib/libboost_unit_test_framework-mt.so
/usr/lib/libboost_unit_test_framework.so

There's a missing couple of symlinks for *gcc41*. This causes linking statements including
   -lboost_unit_test_framework-gcc41-1_34_1
to fail while
   -lboost_unit_test_framework-gcc42-1_34_1
will succeed. Note change from gcc41 to gcc42 in that library name. This should be fixable with a symlink from
  /usr/lib/libboost_unit_test_framework-gcc41-1_34_1.so.1.34.1
to
  /usr/lib/libboost_unit_test_framework-gcc41-1_34_1.so
