Hello,

I would like to use pytave wrapper (https://launchpad.net/pytave)
instead or the default pexpect interface. It is similar to the
mlabwrap library for the Matlab engine in the sense that it embeds an
Octave interpreter using octave's C library. So far I could not
compile it though.

Pytave depends on boost::python and thanks to an older thread I have
found that there was a boost package for Sage so I installed it using
'sage -i boost'.

I then issued 'sage -sh' and tried to follow the regular install
instructions for pytave, i.e.

autoreconf --install
./configure

but the script tells me that I am missing Python, Boost and Octave
development files. I can ask my sysadmin to install octave development
files but I am puzzled by Python and boost dependencies. Aren't there
both supposed to be included in my installation of sage ? I tried

./configure LDFLAGS="-L/path-to-sage/local/lib/python2.6"

and many similar combinations without success. Did I miss some step ?

Thank you,

Pablo
