Hi,

I am a newbie to boost, and I don't know if this issue has been addressed.

I am trying to build the boost libraries on a Win2k machine with MSVC++ 6
installed, so I downloaded bjam, added it to the path, added the boost
libraries path to the include path and started the build with the command
"bjam -sTOOLS=msvc", and here is what I am getting:

*********************************
D:\Documents and
Settings\Administrator\Desktop\dev\boost_1_30_0>bjam -sTOOLS=msvc
---------------------------------------------------------------------
skipping Boost.Python library build due to missing or incorrect
configuration

couldn't find Python.h in "/usr/include"

You can configure the location of your python installation by setting:
PYTHON_ROOT - currently "/usr"
PYTHON_VERSION - The 2-part python Major.Minor version number (e.g.
                 "2.2", NOT "2.2.1") - currently "2.2"

The following are automatically configured from PYTHON_ROOT if not
otherwise set:

    PYTHON_LIB_PATH - path to Python library object; currently
                          "/usr/libs"

and many more like this. Any ideas what I am doing wrong?

Thanks,
