Assigned to Philip Lowman, the current module maintainer for FindBoost.

The module does use find_library. The list that cmake-boost-libs.patch modifies is used to compute this argument:

  find_library(... HINTS ${_boost_LIBRARY_SEARCH_DIRS} ...)

Any path ending in "lib" should be automatically transformed to "lib64" by this platform configuration setting:

  http://www.cmake.org/cmake/help/cmake-2-8-docs.html#prop_global:FIND_LIBRARY_USE_LIB64_PATHS [^]

which defaults to true:

  http://cmake.org/gitweb?p=cmake.git;a=blob;f=Modules/Platform/UnixPaths.cmake;hb=v2.8.4#l88 [^]

everywhere except on Debian which does not use lib64:

Removed relationship with issue 0012037 because the problem is unrelated (though it is similar).

Removed relationship with issue 0011964 which is about installation, not finding.

Ok, it _should_ work. Apparently it does not in cmake-2.8.4 .

See 0012247:0026869 for explanation (CXX-only project). Here is the fix:
