Summary0014739: findboost.cmake can't find boost::mpi library
DescriptionIn short, Fedora installs libboost_mpi.so into /usr/lib{,64}/{openmpi,mpich}/lib, which is why the module cannot find it.

Setting BOOST_ROOT will make the other components disappear.

Notes

Brad King   
2014-02-07 09:14   
There are two competing goals. One is for all the found Boost libraries to belong together. This is achieved by using the NO_DEFAULT_PATH option to find_library to search only in Boost_LIBRARY_DIR once it is known:

 http://cmake.org/gitweb?p=cmake.git;a=blob;f=Modules/FindBoost.cmake;hb=v2.8.12.2#l809 [^]
 http://cmake.org/gitweb?p=cmake.git;a=blob;f=Modules/FindBoost.cmake;hb=v2.8.12.2#l288 [^]

It works under the assumption that all the libraries are installed together as they are by upstream Boost packaging and distribution.

The other goal, raised here, is to search somewhere that is not necessarily next to all the other Boost libraries, but instead next to the MPI libraries. Since the FindMPI module is quite intricate we cannot possibly duplicate all that in FindBoost just for the MPI component. However, we could consider teaching FindBoost to look next to MPI_CXX_LIBRARIES and MPI_C_LIBRARIES if they are set by a preceding find_package(MPI) call.

Yeah, had sounds good, if MPI_CXX_LIBRARIES is defined one could use its dirname as an additional HINTS directory for libboost_mpi and libboost_mpi_python.

Re 0014739:0035055: Please try attached "0001-FindBoost-Search-next-to-MPI-libraries-for-boost_mpi.patch". It should work for the mpi component (but not mpi_python yet), though I do not have a machine with this installation layout so I cannot test it in a real environment.

Oops, the first patch had a typo that prevented the computed paths from being used by the find commands. Please try "0001-FindBoost-Search-next-to-MPI-libraries-for-boost_mpi.patch-v2".

With v2 it finds boost_mpi, but boost_serialization and boost_python cannot be detected anymore.

Re 0014739:0035086: Patch v2 was finding boost_mpi first and then treating its location as "the" location of all boost libraries. Please try v3. This one treats the mpi directory as a fallback for the specific components without considering the result to be meaningful for other components. Patch v3 also adds support for mpi_python.
