I don't know anything about quickbook, so help is needed to debug this failure.
This appears to be a problem with boost build. It should build quickbook automatically if you haven't specified the location of a prebuilt executable. But something is going wrong. I don't think the quickbook build tool has been changed, so the problem might be somewhere else in boost build.
This is a known bug. http://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/1584 I created a patch, but someone who knows more bbv2 than me should check that it is actually right.
Oh, I did not realize it's one-liner. I think it's perfectly fine, that's how property propagation generally works. Steven, feel free to commit this. OTOH, it seems like we have *two* workarounds: 1. Explicitly specify the location of quickbook binary in "using quickbook". 2. Do not use the <dependency> feature in doc Jamfile of accumulators library, as the ticket claims such <dependency> is not actually necessary. So, if anybody wants to get doc building working sooner than the fix is checked in, you know what to do ;-) - Volodya
