Ok - it can't find bzlib.h http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_52_0/libs/iostreams/doc/classes/bzip2.html says: The bzip2 Filters depend on the third-party libbz2 library, which is not included in the Boost distribution. Prebuilt libbz2 binaries are available on most UNIX and UNIX-like systems, and will be found automatically by the Boost build system. [ more snippage ]

Here Boost.Python is complaining that it can't find a suitable version of Python installed on your system.
