Description

I'm trying a fresh build on another machine and get this error when using the boost-cpp conda package:

/usr/bin/ld.gold: error: cannot find -lboost_filesystem_static
/usr/bin/ld.gold: error: cannot find -lboost_system_static

Note that Boost static libraries are installed, but they are named libboost_filesystem.a and libboost_system.a (no "_static" suffix).
