I tried to install lib64boost-atomic and it couldn't find the package. urpmi lib64boost-atomic No package named lib64boost-atomic When searching for lib64boost, I get the following list. I thought that the addition of 1.60.0 was cumbersome and not very portable. It is also the case in Mageia 5 x86_64. Looks like when there is an update, it'll be named lib64boost-atomic1.60.1 (for example). Is there a special reason why these packages are named as such? urpmq -y lib64boost 1 ↵ lib64boost-graph-mpi1.60.0 lib64boost-graph-mpich1.60.0 lib64boost-mpi-python1.60.0 lib64boost-mpich-devel lib64boost-mpich-python1.60.0 lib64boost-mpich1.60.0 lib64boost-openmpi-devel lib64boost-openmpi1.60.0 lib64boost-python3_1.60.0 lib64boost-static-devel lib64boost_atomic1.60.0 lib64boost_chrono1.60.0 lib64boost_container1.60.0 lib64boost_context1.60.0 lib64boost_coroutine1.60.0 lib64boost_date_time1.60.0 lib64boost_filesystem1.60.0 lib64boost_graph1.60.0 lib64boost_iostreams1.60.0 lib64boost_locale1.60.0 lib64boost_log1.60.0 lib64boost_math1.60.0 lib64boost_prg_exec_monitor1.60.0 lib64boost_program_options1.60.0 lib64boost_python1.60.0 lib64boost_random1.60.0 lib64boost_regex1.60.0 lib64boost_serialization1.60.0 lib64boost_signals1.60.0 lib64boost_system1.60.0 lib64boost_thread1.60.0 lib64boost_timer1.60.0 lib64boost_type_erasure1.60.0 lib64boost_unit_test_framework1.60.0 lib64boost_wave1.60.0 lib64boost_wserialization1.60.0 urpmq -y libboost libboost-graph-mpi1.60.0 libboost-graph-mpich1.60.0 libboost-mpi-python1.60.0 libboost-mpich-devel libboost-mpich-python1.60.0 libboost-mpich1.60.0 libboost-openmpi-devel libboost-openmpi1.60.0 libboost-python3_1.60.0 libboost-static-devel libboost_atomic1.60.0 libboost_chrono1.60.0 libboost_container1.60.0 libboost_context1.60.0 libboost_coroutine1.60.0 libboost_date_time1.60.0 libboost_filesystem1.60.0 libboost_graph1.60.0 libboost_iostreams1.60.0 libboost_locale1.60.0 libboost_log1.60.0 libboost_math1.60.0 libboost_prg_exec_monitor1.60.0 libboost_program_options1.60.0 libboost_python1.60.0 libboost_random1.60.0 libboost_regex1.60.0 libboost_serialization1.60.0 libboost_signals1.60.0 libboost_system1.60.0 libboost_thread1.60.0 libboost_timer1.60.0 libboost_type_erasure1.60.0 libboost_unit_test_framework1.60.0 libboost_wave1.60.0 libboost_wserialization1.60.0
