Re: [Visualpython-users] problem compiling vpython on fedora 9

(Hmm. Looks like this was bounced from the list because my mail address
changed: updated address and reposted; apologies if you get this twice)

 I've just built visual- 4.beta26 on Fedora 9 (having upgraded from Fedora 5).
 
 In order to do this I had to make a couple of changes:
 
 src/util/errors.cpp:
     add 
        #include <cstdliv>   
     below other #includes.
 
 src/Makefile:
     add - mt to the boost libraries at line 201  (in all POSIX- like systems), 
 so have:
    the line:
            $(GTHREAD_LIBS) - lboost_python- mt - lboost_thread- mt)
 
 I see this last change is also present in the darwin section. Perhaps this 
 reflects some
 name change in the boost libraries (I presume - mt means multithreaded. There 
 are
 non- mt versions of the boost libraries other than boost_thread).
 
 After these, beta26 seems to build and run OK.
 
 Roger.
