Hi, Trying to install boost 1_54 (I had the same problem with 1.55) on my laptop Windows 7 (64bits RAM 6 Go), I have following failure (details in attached file): common.mkdir bin.v2/libs/context/build common.mkdir bin.v2/libs/context/build/gcc-4.8.2 common.mkdir bin.v2/libs/context/build/gcc-4.8.2/release common.mkdir bin.v2/libs/context/build/gcc-4.8.2/release/address-model-64 common.mkdir bin.v2/libs/context/build/gcc-4.8.2/release/address-model-64/link-static common.mkdir bin.v2/libs/context/build/gcc-4.8.2/release/address-model-64/link-static/asm gcc.compile.asm bin.v2/libs/context/build/gcc-4.8.2/release/address-model-64/link-static/asm/make_x86_64_sysv_elf_gas.o libs/context/src/asm/make_x86_64_sysv_elf_gas.S: Messages de l'assembleur: libs/context/src/asm/make_x86_64_sysv_elf_gas.S:43: Avertissement: .type pseudo opérateur utilisé à l'extérieur de .def/.endef ignoré. libs/context/src/asm/make_x86_64_sysv_elf_gas.S:43: Erreur: rebut à la fin de la ligne, premier caractère non reconnu est « m » libs/context/src/asm/make_x86_64_sysv_elf_gas.S:73: Avertissement: .size pseudo opérateur utilisé à l'extérieur de .def/.endef ignoré. libs/context/src/asm/make_x86_64_sysv_elf_gas.S:73: Erreur: rebut à la fin de la ligne, premier caractère non reconnu est « m » "g++" -x assembler-with-cpp -O3 -finline-functions -Wno-inline -Wall -m64 -DBOOST_ALL_NO_LIB=1 -DNDEBUG -I"." -c -o "bin.v2/libs/context/build/gcc-4.8.2/release/address-model-64/link-static/asm/make_x86_64_sysv_elf_gas.o" "libs/context/src/asm/make_x86_64_sysv_elf_gas.S" ...failed gcc.compile.asm bin.v2/libs/context/build/gcc-4.8.2/release/address-model-64/link-static/asm/make_x86_64_sysv_elf_gas.o... gcc.compile.asm bin.v2/libs/context/build/gcc-4.8.2/release/address-model-64/link-static/asm/jump_x86_64_sysv_elf_gas.o The process I followed after fresh cygwin 64 install: tar --bzip2 -xf boost_1_54_0.tar.bz2 cd boost_1_54_0/ ./bootstrap.sh #./b2 -j8 --prefix=$PWD --libdir=$PWD/lib64 --layout=tagged link=static threading=multi,single install || echo FAILURE ./b2 --prefix=$PWD --libdir=$PWD/lib64 --layout=tagged link=static threading=single address-model=64 install >build.log Could you please tell me what I am doing wrong ?
