Problems installing MeshPy on gentoo (AMD64)

Hi,

I am sorry to bother you again. I am trying to install MeshPy on my laptop. It has gentoo linux, python 2.6 and boost 1.35. I am assuming that python headers are also installed because the gentoo system itself is built in python.

I have downloaded MeshPy 0.91.1 and I went to the documentation website.

I have not manually installed Boost, instead there is already a version of boost on my computer.

I configure with the following line:

./configure --boost-inc-dir=/usr/include/ --boost-lib-dir=/usr/lib64 --boost-python-libname=libboost_python-mt

because there exists on the system a directory /usr/include/boost_1-35. Furthermore:

ls -la /usr/lib64/ | grep libboost_python

gives (among others)

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 25 2009-10-26 19:34 libboost_python-mt.a -> libboost_python-mt-1_35.a

The configure ends without any echo to the command line. Then I type "make":

rooijen@nozomi ~/python/MeshPy-0.91.1 $ make ctags -R src || true /usr/bin/python2.6 setup.py build running build running build_py

running build_ext

Sorry, your build failed. Try rerunning configure with different options.

I honestly don't know what to make of this.... Is this a common error?
