boost-current and gcc 3.x on Linux
I once again cvs-updated my copy of the Boost sources and tried to build them on a gcc 3.0.4 Linux machine -- without success. The complete output of the targets that failed to build lays at: http://cryp.to/boost-build-log.txt I would be really nice if someone could help me getting this build to work.

These errors are all from testcases that are intended to fail at compile-time (e.g, to test that certain illegal syntax won't compile). If these are the only errors, then it seems that everything went well. In truth, just running 'jam' should not have built these testcases. I think that's a known bug in the current Boost.Build system. Doug

Oh. That's a surprise. :-) Then I have one last question: Is there anything in the Boost build system that remotely resembles a "make install"? I ask because it appears that especially the libraries are scattered all over the place and I don't see how I could install all relevant files to a location in, say, /usr/local/boost/{include,lib}. -peter

No, there isn't any 'make install' equivalent. It's been a topic of much debate, and surely it will be added at some point, but AFAIK nobody has stepped up to the task of actually _doing_ it yet. At the moment, it's a mess of conflicting requirements :( Doug
