Cannot compile spring on Debian Lenny 32bit

I try to compile on Debian Lenny but I get the following:

Code: Select all

I used glew version 1.5 and then updated to the last one (1.6) but I still get the same error? Any ideas?

Now I am suspecting that the problem relies on that I use an older libboost version(1.35) but I am having trouble to update it. I downloaded 1.42 after removing the old 1.35 and now I get this when I try to install the .deb package:

Unpacking replacement libboost-dev ...
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of libboost-dev:
libboost-dev depends on libboost1.42-dev; however:
Package libboost1.42-dev is not installed.

No idea what it is supposed to mean. How can I already need the package libboost when it's the one I try to install?

Look at the names, it's not the same package. It's libboost-dev is just a meta package pointing to the actual package (libboost1.42-dev).

You might want to update your distribution. New Debian stable is squeeze.
