Descripción
Hello,
I'm attempting to install boost::python on a Raspbian bullseye (32 bit) system. First, I followed the instructions at https://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_81_0/more/getting_started/unix-variants.html to build bjam (b2) and install the boost::python libraries and headers...
```
jay@raspberrypi:~/boost_1_81_0 $ ./bootstrap.sh --with-libraries=python --prefix=/home/jay/boost_libs
...
jay@raspberrypi:~/boost_1_81_0 $ ./b2 install
```
It completed without error.
Then, I followed the instructions at https://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_81_0/libs/python/doc/html/tutorial/tutorial/hello.html to build the example...
```
jay@raspberrypi:~/boost_1_81_0/libs/python/example/tutorial $ ~/boost_1_81_0/b2
...found 11 targets...
...updating 3 targets...
gcc.link.dll hello_ext.so
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lboost_python
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
"g++" -o "hello_ext.so" -Wl,-h -Wl,hello_ext.so -shared -Wl,--start-group "hello.o" -Wl,-Bstatic -Wl,-Bdynamic -lboost_python -ldl -lpthread -lutil -Wl,--end-group -fPIC -g
...failed gcc.link.dll hello_ext.so...
...skipped hello for lack of hello_ext.so...
...failed updating 1 target...
...skipped 2 targets...
```
It seems that b2 isn't correctly locating the boost_python library. I've also tried installing the boost libraries and headers to the system (/usr/local/) and it made no difference.
I can see the libraries in the filesystem:
```
jay@raspberrypi:~ $ ls ~/boost_libs/lib/
cmake libboost_numpy39.a libboost_numpy39.so libboost_numpy39.so.1.81.0 libboost_python39.a libboost_python39.so libboost_python39.so.1.81.0
jay@raspberrypi:~ $ ls /usr/local/lib/
cmake libboost_numpy39.a libboost_numpy39.so libboost_numpy39.so.1.81.0 libboost_python39.a libboost_python39.so libboost_python39.so.1.81.0 python3.9
```
Please can you help me determine what's missing?
-Thanks,
-Jay
