Description:
As in the synopsis, Connector/C++ won't build against boost-devel-1.41.0-25.el6.i686 but will build with boost 1.41.0-18.el6

A workaround can be used to get it working, which can be found here:
http://public.kitware.com/Bug/view.php?id=15270

How to repeat:
Build Connector/C++ on OL6 with boost-devel-1.41.0-25.el6.i686

Hello Marcin,

Thank you for the report.

Thanks,
Umesh
