Please work your way through
http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_36_0/more/getting_started/index.html; it
should help. Please also note that Boost doesn't include Python
bindings for every library in the collection.
Many thanks David for your advice!
I have tried to follow your advice but I have encountered a little problem,
and I can't find the solution on documentation.
When I tried to install bgl-python-0.9 (boost.graph bindigs)
I retrieved this error:
[root@ciropom bgl-python-0.9]bjam --build-dir=/home/ciropom/Scaricati/bgl-python-0.9/ --toolset=gcc --build-type=complete stage
Unable to load Boost.Build: could not find "boost-build.jam"
---------------------------------------------------------------
Attempted search from /home/ciropom/Scaricati/bgl-python-0.9 up to the root
and in these directories from BOOST_BUILD_PATH and BOOST_ROOT: /usr/share/boost-build.
So how can I load correctly Boost.Build?
The documentation speak only about a "IO streams library error", and in this case it isn't the problem.
The documentation recommend to ask in mailing list..
I hope that you can help me...
Many thanks for the time you spent for me!
