I'm seeing: </p> <pre class="wiki">common.mkdir /usr/local/include/boost mkdir -p "/usr/local/include/boost" mkdir: cannot create directory `/usr/local/include/boost': Permission denied </pre><p> Given that <code>--prefix</code> has been set to <code>$HOME</code>, it seems like an error that the build is even trying to create <code>/usr/local/include/boost</code>. </p> en-us /htdocs/site/boost.png https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/3271 Trac 1.4.3 Vladimir Prus Sat, 18 Jul 2009 11:00:23 GMT https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/3271#comment:1 https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/3271#comment:1 <ul> <li><strong>status</strong> <span class="trac-field-old">new</span> → <span class="trac-field-new">closed</span> </li> <li><strong>resolution</strong> → <span class="trac-field-new">fixed</span> </li> </ul> <p> This is fixed in SVN HEAD and release branch. </p> Ticket
