Joel,

I tried that -

with

export Boost_DIR=/home/doriad/build/Boost_1_51/

in my ~/.profile

and using:

FIND_PACKAGE(Boost 1.51)

ccmake still shows:

 Boost_DIR       =                *Boost_DIR-NOTFOUND

But as I mentioned,  Boost_INCLUDE_DIR and Boost_LIBRARY_DIRS are set
correctly, and everything builds fine. It is just terribly confusing
for one of the first things a user sees in ccmake is
Boost_DIR-NOTFOUND, even though everything is configured properly!
