[jira] Commented: (AVRO-181) avro trunk build is failing with missing boot libraries

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-181?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12773696#action_12773696 ] 

Scott Banachowski commented on AVRO-181:
----------------------------------------

You need to install boost in order to build avro c++.   Because c++ tests gets invoked at at top-level ant build, this will trigger (even if you don't intend to use the c++ version).

The path of least resistance may be to install boost.  If you're a developer, you probably should have boost anyway :).  I think the future changes to packaging that Matt is working on may fix this though, at least make it easier to selectively build different bindings.

If you have a staged boost library (still not installed) please specify $BOOST_ROOT in your environment and do not give a PATH to --with-boost option.  If you are sure you have boost installed, then check your version number looking in <boost/version.hpp>. See http://randspringer.de/boost for more documentation.
