I am having trouble installing boost library completely it fails/skips several things that seem to be key for me to continue on to compiling a program with it. Here is what I get when I install boost,
gcc.compile.c++ bin.v2/libs/iostreams/build/gcc-4.6/release/threading-multi/bzip2.o

Ive tried re-installing zlib, and other archive tools like bzip2 but no luck.
