Subject: [Boost-users] Boost Install on Mac OS X using GCC
From: Andrew (oxygen03_at_[hidden])

Hello, I'm trying to install boost on mac using the gcc compiler. I
encounter these errors during installation for all libraries:

    "g++" -Wl,-R
-Wl,"/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib" -Wl,-R
-Wl,"/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/python2.6/config"
 -o "stage/lib/libboost_prg_exec_monitor.dylib" -Wl,-h
-Wl,libboost_prg_exec_monitor.dylib -shared -Wl,--start-group
"/Users/andrew/boost/boost/bin.v2/libs/test/build/gcc-4.2.1/release/threading-multi/execution_monitor.o"
"/Users/andrew/boost/boost/bin.v2/libs/test/build/gcc-4.2.1/release/threading-multi/debug.o"
"/Users/andrew/boost/boost/bin.v2/libs/test/build/gcc-4.2.1/release/threading-multi/cpp_main.o"
 -Wl,-Bstatic -Wl,-Bdynamic -Wl,--end-group

...failed gcc.link.dll stage/lib/libboost_prg_exec_monitor.dylib...
gcc.link.dll stage/lib/libboost_unit_test_framework.dylib
ld: unknown option: -R
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

I have no experience at all using boost in mac, and it is necessary that I
use gcc.
I am wondering if anyone could point me to a solution regarding this.

Thanks,
Andrew
