Hello,

I just tried building Boost.Python as part of the Boost meta-project
(using the develop branch), using the invocation

  ./bootstrap.sh

  ./b2 --with-python

resulting in

...

Building the Boost C++ Libraries.

    - symlinks supported       : yes (cached)

    next alternative: required properties: <python>2.7

My ~/user-config.jam file contains

  using python : 2.7 ;
  using python : 3.5 : python3 : /usr/include/python3.5m :
/usr/lib64/libpython3.5m.so ;

Any idea what is wrong ?

Thanks,

        Stefan
