Jamroot is kind of odd. It ignores the targets created with boost-install. Try adding dll-path to this one:
# Complete install package.install install-proper : $(install-requirements) <install-no-version-symlinks>on : : libs/$(libraries)/build : $(headers) ;
Thank you very much. This does in fact create libraries with rpath defined when I build all of boost. Would it make sense to modify this web page
http://www.boost.org/boost-build2/doc/html/bbv2/faq/dll-path.html
to indicate that more explicitly? I know I never would have figured it out without your help, but would have immediately found the correct answer if the page was more complete. I'm not certain of the use of the 'stage installed ...' Jamroot fragment on the web page, because that did not work for me. Perhaps it does for others. Had that been replaced by the following (and the note that this was referring to Jamroot):
# Complete install package.install install-proper : $(install-requirements) <install-no-version-symlinks>on <dll-path>/usr/lib/snake : : libs/$(libraries)/build : $(headers) ;
it would have worked for me. Thanks again for your help. Cheers, Brook
