[ndnSIM] Installation ndnsim 2.0

[Spyridon (Spyros) Mastorakis]

Hi Gill,

first of all, the error you got refers to ndn-cxx, which is our library, not ndnSIM itself.

This error indicates that your installed boost libraries could not be found by ndn-cxx.

Please make sure that you installed the boost libraries correctly and then search for the directory, where they were installed.

Typically, the boost libraries are installed under the /usr/lib directory. If your boost libraries have been installed somewhere else, you may use the following option to indicate the specific directory and configure ndn-cxx:

./waf configure --boost-libs=<directory_where_boost_libraries_have_been_installed>
