unknown compiler version

[dstjames]

I am not a developer but I need the boost librarys to 
compile a program I want to look at. 

When I try to install the boost library for GCC version 
4.0.2_20050901-3 on SUSE 10.0 I get into an infinate 
loop where it keeps telling me unknown compiler version 
over and over. 

I am using the command  bjam "-sTOOLS=gcc" install. 

Anyone know what this error means or a workaround?

Thanks for any help.

What is "it?"

If you could post the actual error message, maybe someone
could guess what's wrong.

Boost 1.32 only supports up to version 3.4.x of g++. You
should update to the latest version of the libraries.
