https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/1128 <p> When a BOOST_BUILD_PATH is set, or on Linux when a boost-build.jam is present in /usr/share/boost-build, the build system is always loaded from there. Even a boost-build.jam which sets a different path does not overule this behaviour. This is problematic, since e.g. this will prevent to build the boost libraries when the user has set an out of date default boost-build. E.g. I have been trapped into this because I installed the debian boost-build package. The behaviour has been explicitely changed to the current behaviour, but I have no idea why. The file where this can be changed is the Jambase file in the bjam sources. If this behaviour will stay the way it is, could someone please give a clear rationale? </p> en-us /htdocs/site/boost.png https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/1128 Trac 1.4.3 René Rivera Sun, 16 Sep 2007 21:40:39 GMT https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/1128#comment:1 https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/1128#comment:1 <ul> <li><strong>status</strong> <span class="trac-field-old">new</span> → <span class="trac-field-new">assigned</span> </li> </ul> <p> Roland, </p> <p> I'm under the impression that this is already fixed.
