Confused about Boost.Python & bjam
Hi, I tried to get started with Boost.Python. unfortunately I never used the bjam build system before. As it is explained in the documentation I tried to adapt the the files form the examples directory. I copied 'Jamroot', 'boost_build.jam' and 'extending.cpp' to '~/test/'. But I am lost as to what to do now. The docu says I should adjust the 'use-project' path. But what to? I am using a Gentoo system, so there is no boost directory. The librarys are in /usr/lib/ the boost build stuff is in /usr/share/boost-build and the include files are in /usr/include/boost/. If anyone could post minimal Jamroot & boost_build.jam files for this setting I would be realy grateful. I think I will be able to figure out everything else, once I have a working example.

I am using a Gentoo system, so there is no boost directory. A few months ago, I spent a whole day trying to install boost python. I failed. After that, I decided I'd never go near boost again. I think I kind of managed to install boost. All the header only boost stuff works. It was Gentoos package manager that did the installing for me after all. I think my problem is, that the parts of boost got properly spread out over the file system. I am sure the bjam system can handle this but I need a starting point to find out how.
