i'm trying to lunch bjam as a step to install the boost library, needed to run Cufflinks (RNASeq analysis software). however, when i run the code:
$ ./bjam --prefix=/cygdrive/c/cygdrive/c/Boost/include/boost-1_53/boost -- toolset=gcc architecture=x86 address_model=32 link=static runtime-link=static stage install
i get the following error

and I don't really know how to overcome that.
the directory /cygdrive/c/cygdrive/c/Boost/
(and i tried to use only this path but the result is the same) is where i have installed the various files using the code b2 install --prefix=/cygdrive/c/cygdrive/c/Boost/
, however, it contains two folders include
and lib
, lib
is empty while include
contains --> boost-1_53
--> boost
and here there are all the other folders and the .hpp
files.
i am using cygdrive on Win 7 if that helps!
thanks :)
