I have problems to use boost-build and I can't find any help on internet.
I followed the instructions in owlcpp/doc/build.txt. I downloaded the boost-build from "http://sourceforge.net/projects/boost/files/boost-build/2.0-m12/boost-build-2.0-m12.tar.bz2/download?use_mirror=skylink". Here the first incongruency:
I don't have "$(BOOST)/tools/build/v2/" folder.
Nevertheless, I just used "$(BOOST)/tools/build/" folder. Then I continued with the instructions, but when i try to use b2 release i get:
b2 release
Unable to load Boost.Build: could not find build system.
/home/francesco/utils/owlcpp/boost-build.jam attempted to load the build system by invoking
but we were unable to find "bootstrap.jam" in the specified directory
or in BOOST_BUILD_PATH (searching /home/francesco/utils/boost_1_56_0/tools/build, /usr/share/boost-build).
Please consult the documentation at 'http://www.boost.org'.
in the folder i actually have:
~/utils/boost_1_56_0/tools/build$ ls
b2 bin bjam boost-build.jam bootstrap.bat bootstrap.log bootstrap.sh debian doc example Jamroot.jam notes scripts src test website
There is b2, but no bootstrap.jam. What do I do wrong?

SOLVED: the problem was the version 1_56_0 of boost. With version 1_55_0 worked well following the instructions.
Have you encountered error like “b2: command not found” while trying to run b2 release inside the owlcpp-v0.3.4 folder?
