Subject: [Boost-users] Python 3.2 (wide-unicode) with Boost 1.46.1 on Ubuntu 10.04 64bit LTS

Hi,
I have a local build of Python 3.2 which have have used to build
Python extensions and loaded them successfully in Blender 2.5 (which
uses Python 3.2)
I am hoping to migrate my bindings to using Boost.Python.
I have been been getting error messages from bootstrap.sh and bjam
NOTE : I have no problem building boost with Python 2.6.5 which
comes with Ubuntu 10.04 LTS
e.g. bootstrap.sh
./bootstrap.sh --prefix=/opt/boost/vTrunk-Python-3.2
--without-icu --with-python=/opt/python/v3.2/bin/python3.2
--with-python-version=3.2

My local build of python is deployed as per the configure script

The boost build problem might be directory path naming convention related.
If anyone knows the correct to build Boost or Python so they play
nice together, please share.
