Hi,
the installation script for Boostbook contains:
elif test -r "$BOOST_ROOT/tools/build/v2/user-config.jam"; then JAM_CONFIG_IN="$BOOST_ROOT/tools/build/v2/user-config.jam";
Shouldn't BOOST_BUILD_PATH be checked, too?
The code apparently looks for something that resides somewhere in the guts of Boost.Build. Isn't that location specified by BOOST_BUILD_PATH if that variable is set?
It's pointed at by your boost-build.jam file.
What happens if you install BBv2 at some place unrelated to BOOST_ROOT?
Your boost-build.jam file still needs to point at the BBv2 root directory, and in that case it just works. BOOST_BUILD_PATH is merely for adding your own modules to the build system, should you so desire. -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting www.boost-consulting.com
