Compile SSD failed with undefined reference to `boost::re_detail_10630

I wanted to compile the code of SSD (https://github.com/weiliu89/caffe/tree/ssd) but failed.

I compiled it with cmake:

$ cmake .. -DBLAS="open" -Dpython_version=3 -DCUDA_HOST_COMPILER=/usr/bin/g++-5
$ make

But error:

$ make 
[  1%] Built target proto
[ 80%] Built target caffe
[ 82%] Linking CXX executable upgrade_solver_proto_text

make[1]: *** [CMakeFiles/Makefile2:442: tools/CMakeFiles/upgrade_solver_proto_text.dir/all] Error 2
make: *** [Makefile:128: all] Error 2

I have installed the boost package.

I compiled this code on Ubuntu successfully, so I think the code is probably right.

But I don't know why it compiled failed on my Archlinux.

I have tried to rebuild boost with gcc-6.3.1 but it doesn't help.

Can someone help me?

How are your makefiles linking boost? It's possible there could be some OS specific discrepancies here, and the offending lines, if any, will need to be adjusted.

EDIT: [offtopic]SSD is an unfortunate acronym for this project... I though you were referring to the Solid State Drives when I first saw the title. Oh well.[/offtopic]

pass "-DCMAKE_VERBOSE_MAKEFILE=ON" to cmake, recompile. The output should be more informative.
There needs to be some "-lboost_regex" in the row.

I added it and compiled:

$ cmake .. -DBLAS="open" -Dpython_version=3 -DCUDA_HOST_COMPILER=/usr/bin/g++-5 -DCMAKE_VERBOSE_MAKEFILE=ON

And make output:

"-lboost_regex" exsits but compiled error.

The error messages here https://github.com/weiliu89/caffe/issues/460 make me wonder whether you got boost installed or only boost-libs.

pacman -Qi boost

pacman -Qi boost

Both boost and boost-libs are installed.

$ pacman -Q | grep boost
boost 1.63.0-1
boost-libs 1.63.0-1

And "pacman -Qi boost"

I rebuilt boost package to try to solve the problem but failed.

I rebuilt boost package

This is not the stock arch package?

Another thing:

-DCUDA_HOST_COMPILER=/usr/bin/g++-5

Why is there a g++5, where does it come from, why do you (have to pass it) and notably: "stat `which c++`; c++ --version"?

I did have compiled the project with the boost stock arch package but failed. When I Google this problem, I found a similar bug. So I thought the problem may be caused by different gcc version while the boost stock arch package built by GCC 6.2.1. Then I rebuilt boost and boost-libs with this PKGBUILD in official repo using current GCC version 6.3.1. But It didn't work.

"-DCUDA_HOST_COMPILER=/usr/bin/g++-5" is because that CUDA 8.0 doesn't support GCC 6.x.

The SSD project is a fork of Caffe(https://github.com/BVLC/caffe). I compiled the original Caffe with "-DCUDA_HOST_COMPILER=/usr/bin/g++-5" successfully.

I also compared the SSD branch with the original Caffe branch. But I didn't find something useful to solve this problem.
