As always, the release managers would appreciate it if you download the candidate of your choice and give building it a try. Please report both success and failure, and anything else that is noteworthy.
This helps ensure the candidates build OK before we push them out to SourceForge.
The files (and associated md5s) are: 93780777cfbf999a600f62883bd54b17 *boost_1_55_0_rc2.tar.gz d6eef4b4cacb2183f2bf265a5a03a354 *boost_1_55_0_rc2.tar.bz2 8aca361a4713a1f491b0a5e33fee0f1f *boost_1_55_0_rc2.zip 4e5bbc15fc8c80df8be428f8a5b5a823 *boost_1_55_0_rc2.7z
Thanks!
I tried building in C++03 mode on the 20131013 snapshot of GCC 4.9 with Boost.MPI enabled on Linux (RHEL 6.4), and still had some errors (and many, many warnings): 1. There is still the message about link.jam being missing that I posted about with RC1. 2. I get a number of failures; a few are due to warnings-as-errors with more warnings enabled in 4.9, but many seem to be real problems. 3. qi_match_manip1 seems to enter an infinite loop intermittently (but most of the time) and use a large amount of memory. A partial test log (just of the failures up until the infinite loop in #3) is at URL:http://www.crest.iu.edu/~jewillco/gcc-49-build-errors.txt. I used the -w option to try to hide most of the warnings, and this was run after some other builds so it does not show the parts of the test suite that worked. -- Jeremiah Willcock
