Installation Problems (Lack of 'lboost-filesystem')

[BennyHz]

I was trying(struggling) to install velocyto.R on MacOS 12.6 R 4.1.3. When I was using devtools to install velocyto.R:

devtools::install_github('velocyto-team/velocyto.R')

An ERROR message always came up saying:

ld: library not found for -lboost_filesystem
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

The similar error disappeared when I finally installed gfortran/gcc. However, after properly installing boost and adding it into R path, I just still bumped into this error message over and over again.

Same issues

Just figured it out by changing the path of boost.
