Thanks for all feedback.
Finally I managed:
- I installed the library with the help from John and Aaron
- and I also used the "=" as indicated by Geert.
-> Works all fine now :-)

Hi,
to check if some "front-porting" is working, I tried to compile on
the master branch - for the first time.
It told me that boost is missing:
checking for boostlib >= 1.48.0... configure: We could not detect
the boost libraries (version 1.48 or higher). If you have a staged
boost library (still not installed) please specify $BOOST_ROOT in
your environment and do not give a PATH to --with-boost option.
If you are sure you have boost installed, then check your version
number looking in <boost/version.hpp>. See
http://randspringer.de/boost for more documentation.
configure: error: Boost 1.48.0 or later was not found and is
required to build GnuCash
So I downloaded Boost 1.56.0 into "/opt/lib/boost/boost_1_56_0".
Running configure with an environment variable
echo $BOOST_ROOT -> /opt/lib/boost/boost_1_56_0
does not change anything.
Running configure with
--with-boost "/opt/lib/boost/boost_1_56_0"
results in:
checking build system type... Invalid configuration
`/opt/lib/boost/boost_1_56_0': machine
`/opt/lib/boost/boost_1_56_0' not recognized
configure: error: /bin/bash ../config.sub
/opt/lib/boost/boost_1_56_0 failed
What can I do?
Kind regards,
Carsten

I do a similar thing, and here is what I pass to configure:
./configure --with-boost=/home/lmat/builds/development
(I trimmed out a dozen lines, but this should get to the gist of the
matter.)
I built boost with
#!/bin/bash
cd boostsvn
./bootstrap.sh --prefix=/home/lmat/builds/development
./b2 install
I don't set BOOST_ROOT. Hopefully this helps?
In Christ,
Aaron Laws
