Hi,
I am trying to build bjam with python support.  This is the code that I execute…
sh ./build.sh gcc --with-python=/usr/include/python2.5
However…it fails to build the a ton of errors relating to the fact that Python.h can’t be found. 
In in user-conig.jam file I have the following line…
# Python configuration
using python : 2.5 : /usr/include/python2.5 ;
 
I am trying to make to the step where I can run the “python_module” examples in the /tools/build/v2/example folder…
 
I can build bjam but only leave out python support.
 
What am I doing wrong?
 
Thanks
