Re: [Quantlib-users] Installation of QL in custom folder

[Jonathan S. <sw...@gm...>]

The ${HOME} in your prefix looks out of place. Can you try removing it?

If that doesn’t fix it then I would try escaping the ampersands in the
directory name, or even better renaming the directory.

By the way, the warning message means you can safely remove —with-boost-lib
because it’s no longer required.
