[Boost-users] Error compiling Boost::graph crs_graph

Dear all,
I have been using the compressed_sparse_row_graph quite extensively in
past. Now, I am working under Linux with Boost 1.55 and I am lost trying to
compile the following toy piece of code:

#include <vector>
#include 

int main()
{

    typedef boost::compressed_sparse_row_graph gtype;

    std::vector edges;
    std::vector< int > distances;

    gtype graph(boost::edges_are_unsorted_t(),
edges.begin(), edges.end(),
distances.begin(), edges.size());

    return 0;
}

Just compile with g++ 4.8.2 and you get

conversion from ���boost::detail::csr_edge_descriptor��� to non-scalar type ���std::pair��� requested

What the xxx is happening? In my understanding sounds like there conversion
from an edge_descriptor to a pair....Any ideas??

Best,
