Hy everyone! I know I'm just a dreadfully annoying noob, but I can't get the
installation procedure right with cgal 3.4.

I'm running under winxp (don't stone me..). I installed boost, cmake and set
all the PATH values (BOOST_PATH, Boost_INCLUDE_DIR, Boost_LIBRARYDIR,
Boost_THREAD_LIBRARY_DEBUG & Boost_THREAD_LIBRARY_RELEASE). After all that, I
installed using the installer provided on the CGAL site, and now I'm trying to
get cmake to produce the .vcproj (I'd like to install it for visual c 2008),
but it keeps getting stuck with the error message "boost_thread not found" and
asks me to set the Boost_LIBRARYDIR variable...

The boost version is 1.39.0, cmake is 2.6.4 and cgal is 3.4. Any ideas what
I'm
doing wrong?
