Re: [Visualpython-users] Help with Boost on Mac OS

[Steve S. <st...@sp...>]

Hi Martin, Hugh, Bruce, etc...

Forgive me if I'm not thinking about this right... but for a new  
native/carbon build I'd think we'd want to steer clear of fink as  
much as possible. I got the impression we were trying to make a  
completely stand-alone vpython that doesn't require any fink, not  
even for libraries/etc...

I got boost to build OK in /usr/local/ with fink "turned off". I  
guess the next step is to try to get some of vpython to compile and  
link against those header files and libraries?
