Hi Robert,

I have Boost installed under Fedora13 in /usr/include, not installed by me, but I imagine done as part of installing Fedora.
I have a codebase that uses Boost and builds perfectly, using gcc 4.5.1
Now, if I move my Boost installation
mv /usr/include/boost ~rgj/xx
and add an appropriate include directive to my compile lines, I get compile errors from Boost headers
/home/rgj/xx/boost/date_time/gregorian/conversion.hpp: In function ‘tm boost::gregorian::to_tm(const boost::gregorian::date&)’: /home/rgj/xx/boost/date_time/gregorian/conversion.hpp|44 col 23| error: missing initializer for member ‘tm::tm_sec’ etc, etc
Obviously I'm having a minor aberration here...what am I doing wrong?
The only thing I can think of besides file permissions (which are correct, I presume?) is that you haven't changed your BOOST_ROOT environment variable. In case I forgot something, I'd also look at your environment and see if there is anything with BOOST in it that ought to be changed: env | egrep BOOST And you can have multiple versions existing -- there is no reason why you should have to move it. Since Fedora installed it for you, there is the possibility that it is required by another installed program which you've broken by moving it... Ray
