Christopher,

On following the instructions I get...

[root@localhost 3.4]# ./waf configure
Setting top to                           : /opt/ardour/3.4
Setting out to                           : /opt/ardour/3.4/build
Checking for 'gcc' (c compiler)          : /usr/bin/gcc
Checking for 'g++' (c++ compiler)        : /usr/bin/g++

Global Configuration
 * Install prefix                                    : /usr/local
 * Debuggable build                                  : True
 * Build documentation                               : False

Ardour Configuration
 * Will build against private GTK dependency stack   : no
 * Will rely on libintl built into libc              : yes
 * Will build against private Ardour dependency stack : no
Checking for boost library >= 1.39                   : too old
Please install boost version 1.39 or higher.
The configuration failed
(complete log in /opt/ardour/3.4/build/config.log)

I have boost 1.53 installed, so I am not sure at this point what to try. I
am building this on a F19 x86_64.
