Re: Boost build on gcc 5.2.1 (Ubuntu wily)

 

If you are using Linux, OSX, or MSYS2/MinGW you should use the version
of boost installed on your system as long as it's greater than 1.57.
Boost 1.56 may also work but I'm not 100% sure.  This can be done by
passing -DKICAD_SKIP_BOOST=ON during CMake configuration.  All of this
is going to be ripped out of the KiCad build code after the stable release.
