Subject: [Boost-users] build without python

Hello,

I try to build Boost with MPI on a system and I get errors, because Boost try to build python also.
I run b2 and I build with the --with option the following libraries

Performing configuration checks

    - gcc visibility : yes
    - long double support : yes
    - has_icu builds : no

Component configuration:

    - chrono : not building
    - context : not building
    - date_time : building
    - exception : building
    - filesystem : building
    - graph : not building
    - graph_parallel : not building
    - iostreams : building
    - locale : not building
    - math : building
    - mpi : building
    - program_options : building
    - python : not building
    - random : building
    - regex : building
    - serialization : building
    - signals : not building
    - system : building
    - test : not building
    - thread : building
    - timer : not building
    - wave : not building

The b2 command is: --with-exception --with-math --with-system --with-iostreams --layout=system link=shared runtime-link=shared threading=multi variant=release install --prefix=../build_release/boost/1.52.0 --with-regex --with-random --with-thread --with-date_time --with-program_options --with-filesystem --with-mpi --with-serialization

The build process breaks with the error eg:

...failed gcc.compile.c++ bin.v2/libs/python/build/gcc-4.6/release/threading-multi/long.o...
gcc.compile.c++ bin.v2/libs/python/build/gcc-4.6/release/threading-multi/dict.o
In file included from ./boost/python/detail/prefix.hpp:13:0,
                 from ./boost/python/dict.hpp:8,
                 from libs/python/src/dict.cpp:4:
./boost/python/detail/wrap_python.hpp:75:24: fatal error: patchlevel.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.

If I mix --with and --without option on the b2 command I get the error: error: both --with-<library> and --without-<library> specified

How can I disable any Python builds?

Thanks

Phil
