[cycles] build error

#1

Having trouble building cycles, it appears to be boost, but it is all installed… running Ubuntu 10.04
Blender Trunk builds fine, and i have libboost-1.40.0

I also had a problem with boost, although it gave me a different error. I tried building Cycles on openSUSE wtih libboost 1.44. However, that failed and I was only able to get it to work by downloading building libboost 1.42 (that’s the version that all the graphicall builds were asking for). Maybe cycles is very particular about what version of boost it uses :D.

After I installed the new libboost, I just run ‘make clean’, made sure all my paths in CMake were correct and it compiled OK.

I hope this helps.

hmm, i’ll give it a shot! thanks!

hello! i’m having the same issue, I was wondering if downgrading libboost did the trick
