I also have boost-1_38 installed using gnu:
configure --prefix=/usr
make
make install

It's likely to be installed either way as long as the python requirements are 
met. (try to confirm that you have some libboost_python-gcc* files)

Thought I'd try my hands at this - I briefly looked at the relevant file in 
4.22 and you'll probably run into the same problem.

First, I had to create a link:
/usr/include/boost -> boost-1_38/boost

Second, I had to edit the file: 
kdeedu-4.2.1/cmake/modules/FindBoostPython.cmake (diff attached)


Anyhow, that diff worked on _my_ system, yours may need a little tweaking, but 
that should give you a good start. Basically, it looks like there is an 
assumption about the location of the header file and the version of boost 
being used - a maintainer could probably spend a lifetime chasing these 
things... never mind testing!

Good luck,
Trent.
