I downloaded the zip from here https://www.boost.org/users/download/. It did say permission denied in the beginning but after I ran 'chomd +wx bootstrap.sh' I assume it's writable.

    I'm afraid I can't help much then.  Is the
    Boost distribution writable?

However, the terminal returns ‘Failed to build Boost.Build build engine.’ I doublechecked my directory and it seemed that the directory was correct. I’m not sure what the problem is.
