I managed to build the latest VPython on the latest Ubuntu (10.04), both
32-bit and 64-bit.
As I reported earlier, there was a problem that the linker objected to
-lboost_python-mt. The solution was to change the reference in the src
Makefile to -lboost_python. Apparently there has been some change in the
Boost machinery that made this necessary.
There is at least one remaining problem. 3D text fails for all choices
of font, with the error message that something is wrong with the
specified font.
