Unable to build Boost.Python

Question

I am trying to build boost.python following this link. When I try to compile using ./b2 or ./bjam, I am getting errors like:

Answer 1

I had a similar issue in my project and above would not help. I was cross-compiling python and boost, and the actual issue for me was duplication of the 'using python : ' in configuration (one existed in project-config.jam, following the bootstrap.sh/bat execution and I was trying to add another python config myself to a user-config.jam).

This solution was described in here: http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.boost.build/22088
