[Boost-users] [python] jam file

Hi!

Can any one tell me in details how to prepare jam file for boost.python
example, please.

I have a test project in directory (on Gentoo linux)
~/Tests/

path to the boost-build is 
/usr/share/boost-build

path to the boost includes is
/usr/include/boost

path to the boost libs is
/usr/lib

path to the python includes is
/usr/include/python2.4

path to the python libs is
/usr/lib/python2.4

Should I have original "boost directory tree"?

I have prepared jam file, but still I have an error:

Unable to load Boost.Build: could not find "boost-build.jam"

Attempted search from /home/sevi/Workspace/Python/boost up to the root
and in these directories from BOOST_BUILD_PATH and
BOOST_ROOT: /usr/share/boost-build, /usr/share/boost-build/.

###############################################
# my jam file
###############################################
# This is the top of our own project tree
BOOST_ROOT = /usr/include/boost/ ;
BOOST_BUILD_PATH = /usr/share/boost-build/ ;

#boost-build /usr/share/boost-build/v1 ;

PYTHON_VERSION = 2.4 ;
PYTHON_ROOT = /usr/lib/python2.4/ ;
PYTHON_INCLUDES = /usr/include/python2.4/ ;
PYTHON_LIB_PATH = /usr/lib/python2.4/ ;

project-root . ;

import python ;

extension hello                     # Declare a Python extension called
hello
:   hello.cpp                       # source
    # requirements and dependencies for Boost.Python extensions
    <template>@boost/libs/python/build/extension
    ;
