Description Keith Constable 2003-12-04 14:02:23 UTC
I was attempting to create an ebuild for Bug 32174 when I recieved the
following error during compilation:
g++   -I/usr/include -I/usr/include/python2.2 -I/usr/include -c src/Die.cpp -o bld/Die.o 
/usr/include/boost/python/converter/as_to_python_function.hpp:28: sorry, unimplemented: `method_call_expr' not supported by dump_expr
/usr/include/boost/python/converter/as_to_python_function.hpp:28: sorry, unimplemented: `method_call_expr' not supported by dump_expr

/usr/include/boost/python/converter/as_to_python_function.hpp:28: sorry, unimplemented: `method_call_expr' not supported by dump_expr
[Error] Compile error

After some digging I discovered the following:
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/c++-sig/2003-May/004012.html

I applied the patch to my system and it works perfectly.  Not only does this
bug prevent me from creating an ebuild for Bug 32174, but it also has the
potential to prevent other applications from compiling.

here's another boost bug, do you want to take this one as well?
Comment 3 Keith Constable 2004-01-29 22:38:05 UTC
There's been serveral updates to boost since this bug was opened.  I'm sure it's been fixed.
