Description:
As I build all MySQL releases from the same master folder
I decided to have my_boost in that folder and just use
the same relative ../../my_boost WITH_BOOST path for all
future builds ... the relative path got accepted, the
directory was created and the boost tarball downloaded
into it, but then things started to fail:
_build > cmake .. -DDOWNLOAD_BOOST=1 -DWITH_BOOST=../../my_boost
[...]
-- Local boost dir LOCAL_BOOST_DIR-NOTFOUND
-- Local boost zip LOCAL_BOOST_ZIP-NOTFOUND
-- Downloading boost_1_55_0.tar.gz to ../../my_boost
-- [download 0% complete]
[...]
-- [download 100% complete]
-- tar xfz ../../my_boost/boost_1_55_0.tar.gz boost_1_55_0/boost
CMake Error: Problem with archive_read_open_file(): Failed to open '../../my_boost/boost_1_55_0.tar.gz'
CMake Error: Problem extracting tar: ../../my_boost/boost_1_55_0.tar.gz

CMake Error at cmake/boost.cmake:36 (MESSAGE):
Could not find boost. You can download it with -DDOWNLOAD_BOOST=1
-DWITH_BOOST=<directory>

-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!
How to repeat:
Use relative path for -DWITH_BOOST
Suggested fix:
Either work correctly if a relative path is given, or add a check that makes sure that only absolute paths are accepted, but not relative ones ...
