Hi there. I've got a fresh install of Ubuntu 9.10 and have installed all the boost development tools with apt-get. My goal is to build a "python embedded in C++" program, but I've run into a snag right from the get go.
I just want to preface this by saying that I've search for a solution to this, but my searching skills are sub-par, or there simply isn't a lot of info on the particular topic out there.
aoman@ubuntu:/usr/share/doc/libboost1.38-doc/examples/libs/python/example/quickstart$ bjam
/usr/share/boost-build/build/project.jam:270: in find-jamfile from module project

/usr/share/doc/libboost1.38-doc/examples/libs/python/example/quickstart/boost-build.jam:7: in module scope from module
Any suggestions? I get this whenever and wherever I invoke bjam from.
Thanks!
