libboost_system-mt.1.42.0 copied as 1.41.0: right fix for springlobby?

Like the thread name says, I copied libboost_system-mt.1.42.0 as libboost_system-mt.1.41.0 because springlobby keeps giving this error:

springlobby: error while loading shared libraries: libboost_system-mt.so.1.41.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I read somewhere that symlinks are a bad idea, so I copied and pasted to keep my other packages safe.  Is this the best approach?
Thanks.

Rebuilding springlobby is the correct solution.  Copying or symlinking libraries to have different sonames is very bad...
