Re: [proteowizard-developer] problem with ./quickbuild.sh --boost-src= --zlib-src=

[Brian P. <bri...@in...>]

You might want to try the semiofficial autotools build, it's designed
for your scenario of building with preinstalled libs (bjam is the
preferred and only officially supported build system, but for your
purposes this alternate system may be best).

Go to http://proteowizard.sourceforge.net/downloads.shtml and pick the
autotools download option.

Good luck!
