Hi,
 
I have bjam built using the folowing options....
 
build bjam sh ./build.sh gcc --with-python=/usr
 
I am now trying to build the python "Hello World" app in /boost/python/example/tutorial
 
1) what does "use-project boost" refer to? e.g. /usr/local/include
 
 
# Specify the path to the Boost project.  If you move this project,# adjust this path to refer to the Boost root directory.use-project boost#: ../../../.. ;
 
 
2) when I execute bjam...this is the error I get...
