CGAL build, can't find boost

[Michele Denber]

While building CGAL 4.11.2 on a Solaris 10 SPARC machine, I get from cmake:

...
Configuring libCGAL_Core
-- Requested component: MPFR
-- Requested component: GMP
CMake Error at /opt/csw/share/cmake-3.4/Modules/FindBoost.cmake:1247 (message):
  Unable to find the requested Boost libraries.

  Unable to find the Boost header files.  Please set BOOST_ROOT to the root
  directory containing Boost or BOOST_INCLUDEDIR to the directory containing
  Boost's headers.
Call Stack (most recent call first):
  src/CGAL_Core/CMakeLists.txt:8 (find_package)
...

However, I have already set the boost location:

BOOST_INCLUDEDIR=/opt/csw/gxx/include/boost
BOOST_ROOT=/opt/csw/gxx/lib

Perhaps I am misunderstanding the message from cmake?  Does it want this to be set inside CMakeLists.txt somehow?  Any help would be appreciated.  Merci bien.

Try with
BOOST_INCLUDEDIR=/opt/csw/gxx/include

provided you have for example /opt/csw/gxx/include/boost/version.hpp

Ah ha!  Thank you so much.  That's all it was.  cmake . completed
successfully and then both gmake and gmake install worked first try.  :-)
