The odd thing though is that graph-tool is compiled against /home/pmj27/anaconda2/bin/python2.7. The anaconda boost is installed through conda so should also be linked against that. I can try and tell configure explicitely to take its boost libraries from /home/pmj27/anaconda2/lib/. As far as I can tell all the library files reside in that folder. What would I need to specify for that? (My proficiency isn't great enough to piece it together from the manual unfortuantely.) As far as I can tell by the output reproduced by ldd /home/pmj27/anaconda2/lib/python2.7/site-packages/graph_tool/libgraph_tool_core.so though the boost libraries used by graph-tool are the anaconda boost libraries as they reside in /home/pmj27/anaconda2/lib/ so it isn't clear to me if that would change much. Or am I missing a vital piece here? -- View this message in context: http://main-discussion-list-for-the-graph-tool-project.982480.n3.nabble.com/...
