using gcc ;

using mpi ;

using xsltproc ;

using boostbook
    : "/usr/local/share/xsl/docbook"
    : "/usr/local/share/xml/docbook/4.2"
    ;

Starting from the BOOST_ROOT directory, I run the following commands in order:

./bootstrap.sh
sudo mv b2 /usr/local/bin
sudo b2 install
cd tools/quickbook
