[Rdkit-devel] CentOS 6 build failure

[Gianluca S. <gi...@gm...>]

The CentOS 6 build for the latest RDKit is failing with this error:

In file included from /usr/include/boost/python/to_python_indirect.hpp:11,
                 from /usr/include/boost/python/converter/arg_to_python.hpp:11,

I need to note CentOS 6 has an older boost version (1.41) so if that
is the culprit and we can't fix that code to work with it, I will
probably keep the package at the last know working release (2015.03)
