Isn't it a good idea to remove these messages from the Graph library Jamfile? warning: Graph library does not contain optional GraphML reader. note: to enable GraphML support, set EXPAT_INCLUDE and EXPAT_LIBPATH to the note: directories containing the Expat headers and libraries, respectively. warning: skipping optional Message Passing Interface (MPI) library. note: to enable MPI support, add "using mpi ;" to user-config.jam. note: to suppress this message, pass "--without-mpi" to bjam. note: otherwise, you can safely ignore this message. IMO this information belongs in the documentation. At present it is displayed every time I build anything that uses Boost, even if it doesn't use Graph.
