Hi!
 
I try to build boost from source (boost-1.33.1 from sf.net) under debian stable on x86.
 
In the first run I followed the "Getting Started" document but run into problems. In a second round I tried out the following additionaly:
 
* I downloaded and extracted the sources (tar) to my BOOST_ROOT
* I built bjam according the "Building Boost.Jam" instructions:
  http://www.boost.org/tools/build/jam_src/index.html#building_bjam
  --> bjam seems ok to me
* In Step 4 before carrying out the install uncommented the ``using gcc ;``
  line in BOOST_ROOT/tools/build/v2/user-config.jam
* Step 5: In the BOOST_ROOT I tried to trigger install``bjam --v2 install``
 
Now I'm stuck here, googling around didn't help.
 
Any hints? Thanks.
 
Gregoire
 
P.S.: Everything I do I do as ordinary user. Do I need root priviledges?

(and if you don't know what ICU is then you probably don't need it).
