[Discuss-gnuradio] Boost Library

[Moir, Tom]

I am trying to install the Boost library and get the following error at the 
beginning....

skipping Boost.Python library build due to missing or incorrect configuration

couldn't find Python.h in "/usr/local/include/python2.2"

You can configure the location of your python installation by setting:
PYTHON_ROOT    - currently "/usr/local"
PYTHON_VERSION - The 2-part python Major.Minor version number (e.g.
                 "2.2", NOT "2.2.1")  - currently "2.2"

The following are automatically configured from PYTHON_ROOT if not
otherwise set:

    PYTHON_LIB_PATH       - path to Python library object; currently
                          "/usr/local/lib/python2.2/config"
    PYTHON_INCLUDES    - path to Python #include directories; currently 
"/usr/local/include/python2.2"
---------------------------------------------------------------------

Yet the rest seems to compile after half an hour or so! Does this mean the 
installation has failed?
I cannot seem to find the problem ..Python is installed in my machine and when 
I try the comman PYTHON_ROOT it does not recognise it? Excuse me but I am not a 
Unix expert!

Tom
