I am new to Boost, and only downloaded Jam and Boost yesterday (Monday, May 6, 2002). Perhaps the removal of FAIL_EXPECTED wasn't complete. Here are the links to the files that I downloaded:
www.boost.org/boost_all.tar.gz http://boost.sourceforge.net/jam-executables/bin.solaris/jam.gz
I also tried again with 'http://boost.sourceforge.net/release/boost_1_27_0.tar.gz' and got the same results...
Agggh, yes. This is due to the fact that we updated the jam executable on the website after FAIL_EXPECTED was removed in the CVS... So the executable you have is compatible with the current CVS state but not with the 1.27.0 release. We'll have that fixed in a week at most. In the meantime you can do one of the following: 1. Use the current CVS state of boost (recommended, though you might need step 2 as well) 2. Rebuild your jam from the sources in $(BOOST_ROOT)/tools/build/jam_src by invoking make there. Sorry for the rough start, Dave
