<p class="MsoNormal">But when I do “<span style="color:black">cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/root/Alap/md/ /root/Alap/md/boost_1_43_0”. I get this following error:</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The source directory &quot;/root/Alap/md/boost_1_43_0&quot; does not appear to contain CMakeLists.txt </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Boost_1_43_0 is the folder where I have extracted the boost tar file. </p></div></div></blockquote><div>Linux is case sensitive. So, the source directory would be /root/Alap/md/Boost_1_43_0</div><div>

<br></div><div>The &quot;standard&quot; way to build boost is the following, though:</div><div> cd /root/Alap/md/Boost_1_43_0</div><div> mkdir build-linux</div><div> cd build-linux</div><div> cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/root/Alap/md/deliveries/boost-1.43.0 ..</div>

<div> make</div><div> make install</div><div> cd ..</div><div> # optionally, delete the build directory:</div><div> rm -rf build-linux</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Now, Troy does no longer (have the time to) maintain boost-cmake. Isidor Zeuner kindly maintain it in his own gitorious cloned repository: <a href="http://gitorious.org/~zeuner/boost/zeuners-boost-cmake">http://gitorious.org/~zeuner/boost/zeuners-boost-cmake</a></div>

<div>I&#39;ve successfully built (for Fedora/RedHat) Boost-1.44 from that repository: <a href="https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=607615">https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=607615</a></div><div><br></div>
