but in that case, aclocal should get those versions instead of mine, shouldn't it?
But you really should just use pkg-config instead.
I actually use pkg-config for my library; but boost libraries don't come with a pkg-config .pc file unfortunately :-(
or did you mean something else? cheers Lorenzo -- Lorenzo Bettini, PhD in Computer Science, DI, Univ.
