Subject: [Boost-users] cmake can't find Boost 1.40.0

Hi all,

I have a newbie question here. I am installing a software called gazebo
which uses cmake. The software requres boost 1.35+. I have 1.32 on the
system, and 1.40 installed locally. Cmake seems to only be able to find 1.32
and is not able to find my local installation of 1.40.

I have boost installed in:
/home/timchan/boost_1_40_0

In my .bashrc file I put:

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/timchan/boost_1_40_0/libs:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
export CPATH=/home/timchan/boost_1_40_0/boost:$CPATH

When I run cmake, I get the following error:

CMake Error at /usr/share/cmake/Modules/FindBoost.cmake:868 (message):
  Unable to find the requested Boost libraries.
  Boost version: 1.32.0
  Boost include path: /usr/include
  Detected version of Boost is too old. Requested version was 1.35 (or
newer).

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
