https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/11439 <p> Hello, </p> <p> I am trying to compile boost1.53, I can't use a version newer than 1.55 as this is for the Cufflinks RNA tools. I already had this version installed and working previously, but an HDD made me have to reinstall everything. The commands I have used (multiple times) before are: </p> <p> ./bootstrap.sh </p> <p> which gives: </p> <p> Building Boost.Build engine with toolset gcc... tools/build/v2/engine/bin.linuxx86_64/b2 Detecting Python version... 2.7 Detecting Python root... /usr Unicode/ICU support for Boost.Regex?... not found. Generating Boost.Build configuration in project-config.jam... </p> <p> Bootstrapping is done. To build, run: </p> <blockquote> <p> ./b2 </p> </blockquote> <p> To adjust configuration, edit 'project-config.jam'.
