[Ardour-Dev] New Machine won't build Ardour

[Doug McLain]

Well, you are the first to report a problem here, but according to the 
scons docs the call to CheckLib() is wrong:

http://www.scons.org/doc/latest/HTML/scons-api/SCons.Conftest-module.html#CheckHeader

The docs say that "C" or C++" is to be used as the argument to language, 
where we use "CXX".  Try changing CXX to C++ on line 768 of SConstruct, 
so that it looks like this:

if conf.CheckHeader ('boost/shared_ptr.hpp', language='C++') == False:

Just a thought, stressing again that CXX works fine for everyone else. 
I'm more concerned about locate finding shared_ptr.hpp in /usr/include 
yet one also existing in /usr/local/include.  Was the first one a 
symlink?  The boosty poitner stuff is header only (right?) so i dont 
think multiple installs would cause much problems but something is 
definately off there.  Hope this helps
