Hi,

I have installed Boost 1.55 (+python33), boost-build and boost-jam through Macports on Mac OS X 10.9. Following the HOWTO (http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_55_0b1/libs/python/doc/building.html), I cd to /opt/local/share/doc/boost/libs/python/example/quickstart and typed in "bjam toolset=gcc --verbose-test test" and "bjam" and I got the following error message:


/opt/local/share/boost-build/build/project.jam:271: in find-jamfile from module project
error: Unable to load Jamfile.
error: Could not find a Jamfile in directory '../../../..'.

What was wrong?

These instructions are written assuming that
you are using the official Boost distribution
directly.  The Jamfile is looking for the
main Boost Jamfile which apparently doesn't
exist in your Macports installation.
