build boost with python25 variant

[pierrefalek@…]

Hi. I'm trying to install Deluge. I have installed Deluge with Porticus which is much more clearer than the Terminal interface.

Python25 version 2.5.4_6 is well installed in the ports (Porticus interface is telling me that in the installed ports menu) but when I try a

sudo port install deluge

I goes :

Configuring deluge Error: You must build boost with the python25 variant Error: Target org.macports.configure returned: You must build boost with the python25 variant Error: Status 1 encountered during processing. Executing: /opt/local/bin/port install deluge

What Shall I do ?

As it says, you should build boost with the python25 variant. This is a dupe of #126

[dbevans (David B. Evans)]

to build boost with the python25 variant do this

sudo port deactivate boost
sudo port install boost +python25

[dbevans (David B. Evans)]

while this relates to #126, I read this as asking for help on how to install boost with +python25 variant and as a request to modify boost to install with python25 support by default so reopening and assigning to boost maintainer.

I won't modify boost to build Python 2.5 support.

by default, I meant.

Should be dupe.
