Broadly speaking (beyond just Fedora), there's enough variability in the potential names of Boost libraries that a package's configuration needs the ability to specify a Boost library suffix. It sounds like your package's configuration is trying to be clever and divine the required suffix--and it's failing and falling back to no suffix.
If your package's configuration won't let you specify a suffix, the most expedient thing to do may be just to hack it on. But an upstream-worthy patch would add a means to specify an arbitrary suffix. Also, -mt is a saner default than no suffix at all.
The suffix is determined in /usr/share/cmake/Modules/FindBoost.cmake which is part of cmake, so there is nothing I can do about this in the Player package. Could this be a problem with new cmake or boost versions?
