I think I've implemented the logic needed for "bjam --v2 install" in libs/whatever/build to work. It respects the same --prefix, --libdir and --includedir options as top-level "bjam --v2 install" but only builds a single library. (But installs all headers, of course). Rene, now I have a question for you. In some libs, you've added this: install dist-lib : boost_filesystem : <install-type>LIB <location>../../../dist/lib ; Does the "install" functionality makes this unnecessary and I can safely remove it?
