[Rdkit-devel] Building RDKit on Lucid Lynx with distribution packages (x64)

[Adrian S. <am...@ca...>]

Hi Greg,

I just tried to compile RDKit on Kubuntu 10.04 amd64 with the
boost-devel packages that come with the distribution. Unfortunately it
failed, you might want to update the wiki (at least for 64-bit systems
the packages are not compiled the right way in order to make shared
objects).
