Hi John Reid ,
Thanks fo your reply.
I have some questions about the statements in README file of BGL Python 0.95.
 
It says "You must have a complete Boost distribution available (e.g., retrieved via CVS or as part of a
    Boost tarball) to compile the BGL-Python: 
the BGL-Python bindings will not compile properly with already-installed Boost trees."
 
First, I have got the complete Boost distribution (1.52,ZIP) and extracted it to a path, and added the path as the value of the environment variable BOOST_ROOT.
Second, What does it mean by "the BGL-Python bindings will not compile properly with already-installed Boost trees"?
Should I build the boost.python before calling bjam inside BGL Python 0.95 source dir ?
Or there is no need to build the boost.python separately, as the BGL Python 0.95 build process will build it and use it to continue to build the BGL Python binary automatically ?
 
Without BGL Python, I could build the boost.python based on current configuration, and all the boost.python example passed successfully.
 
Thanks.

Did you try building one of the boost.python examples (available
somewhere like $BOOST_ROOT/libs/python/examples)? That might be the
simplest way to test your boost.build python configuration.
