scribe expects multi threaded libboost and is currently deprecated. So need to create symlinks as explained in this post

I tried to do some quick search and could find boost multi-threaded libraries for ubuntu 14:

http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/libboost-thread1.54-dev
http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/libboost-thread1.55-dev
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/26716202/linux-ubuntu-14-04-boost-libs-and-thread-compilations

Scribe is essentially a multi-threaded application. We need to be extremely careful not to impact this aspect.
Also this linking is done for archive files, whereas scribed essentially links with shared libraries.

libboost-thread-mt and libboost-thread were essentially same and the "-mt" part was a decorator. And now there is no more "-mt" version available in the latest versions of libboost. http://www.boost.org/users/history/version_1_40_0.html
From the build package session.

"The default naming of libraries in Unix-like environment now matches system conventions, and does not include various decorations"

sudo ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libboost_thread.a /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libboost_thread-mt.a
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libboost_system.a /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libboost_system-mt.a

6) Creating sym links for the changed directory structure of /usr/lib in ubuntu 14.04
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libboost_filesystem.a /usr/lib/libboost_filesystem.a
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libboost_system.a /usr/lib/libboost_system.a
