I ran ./configure --prefix=/sw --with-boost=/sw and got the attached config.log file. There still seems to be some complaints of missing files. Are these critical? I tried make install but I do not see any executable in /sw/bin. That is where I should look isn't it?

Attachment: config.log
Description: Binary data

I copied the attached to the pdf-test directory and ran:

./configure --prefix=/sw --with-boost=/sw/include

and got the following error:

checking for boostlib >= 1.20.0... configure: error: We could not
detect the boost libraries (version 1.20 or higher). If you have a
staged boost library (still not installed) please specify $BOOST_ROOT
in your environment and do not give a PATH to --with-boost option. If
you are sure you have boost installed, then check your version number
looking in <boost/version.hpp>. See http://randspringer.de/boost for
more documentation.

in the config.log file I see:

configure:4557: checking for boostlib >= 1.20.0
configure:4617: g++ -c -g -O2  -I/sw/include/include conftest.cpp >&5
conftest.cpp:24:37: error: boost/version.hpp: No such file or directory
conftest.cpp:33:12: error: #error Boost version is too old
configure:4623: $? = 1

I checked that /sw/include/boost/version.hpp does exist. In it I see
#define BOOST_VERSION 103301.

In above why is configure looking in /sw/include/include? That
directory doesn't exist!

I am not autor of boost autoconf macros. I have downloaded and reused (as
they are) them from the boost pages. But when I looked at the code
(config/boost_base.m4 file), it seems that --with-boost=DIR is expected
to contain libraries (if required) and headers. So I suggest to give
./configure --with-boost=/sw --prefix=/sw
in your case.
Does this help?


James.
