It just says unable to find the location of BOOST, consider setting the

Could you send me your directory structure for boost? Perhaps I just
installed it incorrectly. Also tell what your BOOST_DIR is, please.
I ran bjam with the --prefix=$PWD/local option such that a new directory
'local' was created by Boost under the Boost source folder. After bjam
finished the 'local' folder then contains the 'include' and 'lib' folders:
johannr@simula-x61:boost_1_39_0$ pwd
/home/johannr/src/boost_1_39_0
johannr@simula-x61:boost_1_39_0$ ls local/
include lib
johannr@simula-x61:boost_1_39_0$ ls local/include/
boost
johannr@simula-x61:boost_1_39_0$ ls local/lib/
libboost_filesystem.so libboost_program_options.so.1.39.0
libboost_filesystem.so.1.39.0 libboost_system.so
libboost_program_options.so libboost_system.so.1.39.0
johannr@simula-x61:boost_1_39_0$
withBoostDir is then set to the same folder that I used for the --prefix
option when running bjam, that is
scons configure withBoostDir=/home/johannr/src/boost_1_39_0/local
Hope this helps,
Johannes

Hi Shawn,
The file scons/simula_scons.log should give you some hints about what
went
wrong when generating the Boost pkg-config files. You can also try to
run
the pkg-config generators directly and see what happens. First set the
BOOST_DIR variable and then run
python
scons/simula-scons/simula_scons/pkgconfiggenerators/boost_filesystem.py
What is the output of this command? It should generate a file
boost_filesystem.pc in the current directory if successful. Also try to
run boost.py and boost_program_options.py in the same folder. There is
no
need to create symbolic links when using the --layout=system option.

ok, I know this has been beat to death, but I seem to be having
problems
generating the boost.pc files with scons. I have installed the latest
boost 1.39.0 (which uses bjam). I also set the --layout=system option
that Ring had suggested. But when I run scons configure with the
correct
boost directory, it fails to generate the boost.pc file.
The last time I had this problem I had to make symbolic links so that
scons could find it. But I don't need to now because the filenames are
already generic.
