./configure not seeing/finding boost header files

boost, compiler-construction, fedora, gearman

Solution

Just have dealt with this problem, installed gcc-c++ and that has resolved it

Problem

Trying to build gearman from the gearmand-0.33.tar.gz from Launchpad using bzr, on a Fedora 64 system. doing the ./configure by tiself, as well as using the "-with-boost=/usr/include" param generates warnings an errors as the configure process can't seem to find/locate the boost header files. we've removed/reinstalled the boost header files via "yum install boost*" as well Any pointers will be tried! Thanks ``` ./configure . . . checking if more special flags are required for pthreads... no checking for PTHREAD_PRIO_INHERIT... yes checking for Boost headers version >= 1.39.0... yes checking for Boost's header version... 1_41 checking for the toolset name used by Boost for g++... gcc44 -gcc checking boost/program_options.hpp usability... no checking boost/program_options.hpp presence... yes configure: WARNING: boost/program_options.hpp: present but cannot be compiled configure: WARNING: boost/program_options.hpp: check for missing prerequisite headers? configure: WARNING: boost/program_options.hpp: see the Autoconf documentation configure: WARNING: boost/program_options.hpp: section "Present But Cannot Be Compiled" configure: WARNING: boost/program_options.hpp: proceeding with the compiler's result configure: WARNING: ## -------------------------------------------------- ## configure: WARNING: ## Report this to https://bugs.launchpad.net/gearmand ## configure: WARNING: ## -------------------------------------------------- ## checking for boost/program_options.hpp... no configure: error: cannot find boost/program_options.hpp ```
