[PyOpenCL] installation question

Hi Bart,

That was the problem - thanks a lot! Somehow Boost is always linking against the system python. Maybe someone knows how to get Boost to link against another version? That should also be in the wiki.
I did not build my own python but used the stock python from python.org.

Smithers:examples markus$ sudo install_name_tool -change /System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/Python/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/Python libboost_python.dylib 

Worked as well. I think this makes things easier when you update or install other packages.

Thanks for the quick help!
Markus
