Your binaries for Linux don't work:
./neptuniumd: error while loading shared libraries: libboost_system.so.1.55.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
I'm using Kubuntu + some hacks
I think the .so.* is wrong, no file like that exists on my system.
P.S. It's Wily

Dont blame the dev lol. Install boost 1.55.
FYI, you are wrong, stop making baseless claims.

x86_64 and I've downloaded the Neptunium (not the Core one) i.e. the CLI version.
Well, the stackoverflow for ubuntu article you sent me is dumb but works.
I'd better be installing the package. Thank you very much.
And that doesn't work

Package libboost1.55-tools-dev is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source

E: Package 'libboost1.55-tools-dev' has no installation candidate
So I have to symlink it.

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:boost-latest/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install libboost1.55-all-dev

You will likely need to remove the current version of boost. To do that:

dpkg -S /usr/include/boost/version.hpp
sudo apt-get autoremove "package"     where "package" is the boost version returned by the dpkg command.


Keep in mind that you might break other apps that were built with a different version of boost.
Well, breaking the programs is no way that's good, so I'll be better symlinking it as a workaround.

I have updated boost to 1.55 on a couple systems and then other bitcoin based wallets would not run because they were built using the current boost package when you run install libboost-all-dev which installs version 1.54.  I recompiled and they worked fine after that so now I always just install the 1.55 release when I setup a new linux install.

I'm definitely not advocating for anyone to update dependencies that will break other applications.  I'm just relaying my experiences.  I run most things in their own virtualbox so I rarely have any issues with dependencies.
