I have Fedora (pre-FC4). There are packages for icu: libicu, libicu-devel, libicu-doc which I installed.
I can't seem to convince bjam to use them. What do I need to do?
Headers are in /usr/include/unicode (e.g., /usr/include/utypes.h). Libs are rpm -ql libicu /usr/lib64/libicudata.so.32
The Jamfiles getting confused because the libs are under a different path to the headers, try:
export ICU_PATH=/usr export ICU_LINK="-licuuc -licui18n" bjam stage # or whatever
Hopefully that should work,
Works, but could be better: ICU_PATH=/usr ICU_LINK="-licuuc -licui18n" PYTHON_ROOT=/usr PYTHON_VERSION=2.4 bjam -sTOOLS=gcc stage Building Boost.Regex with Unicode/ICU support enabled Using ICU in /usr/include ...found 7586 targets... ...updating 130 targets... gcc-C++-action bin/boost/libs/regex/build/libboost_regex.so/gcc/debug/shared-linkable-true/regex_raw_buffer.o gcc-Link-action bin/boost/libs/regex/build/libboost_regex.so/gcc/debug/shared-linkable-true/libboost_regex-gcc-d-1_33.so /usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/lib/libm.so when searching for -lm /usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/lib/libm.a when searching for -lm /usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/lib/libc.so when searching for -lc /usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/lib/libc.a when searching for -lc [...] Seems to work, but you see the warnings. This is on Fedora x86_64. Apparantly, someone added -L/usr/lib, which would cause those annoying warnings.
