Compilation on OSX fails due to boost dependency

[piehld]

To provide more information on the error that arises during build, here is what occurs:

~/dssp/build % cmake --build . --config Release 
[ 16%] Building CXX object CMakeFiles/mkdssp.dir/src/dssp.cpp.o
[ 33%] Building CXX object CMakeFiles/mkdssp.dir/src/mkdssp.cpp.o
[ 50%] Linking CXX executable mkdssp
ld: library not found for -licudata
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)
make[2]: *** [mkdssp] Error 1
make[1]: *** [CMakeFiles/mkdssp.dir/all] Error 2
make: *** [all] Error 2

The trouble here is that the boost libraries do not contain the correct dependency list in their cmake config file. In theory, cmake config files should specify what is needed to correctly link a library. In the case of boost this means you need the library icudata but also the path to this library.

BTW, the lines you commented out were in fact a hack from my side. They are gone in the latest version.
