How to upgrade Boost when Yum has an outdated version

I am trying to install the latest version of Gearman. However, he continues to give me an error:

Check version Boost Headers> = 1.37 ... no

When I check my version of Boost (the installed list is yum | grep boost), all versions are 1.33. The latest version of Boost is 1.46, but it seems CentOS does not have this version in its repositories.

Is there any way around yum to upgrade Boost to the latest version?

You can try and create one from the source or add a repo that has the latest acceleration distribution for your yum repositories.

Download and install earlier versions of Boost from this page: http://www.boost.org/users/history/

Or follow Ben's instructions here:

What I did with this is to release

rpm -ql boost-devel and rpm -ql boost146-devel

 mv /usr/include/boost146/boost /usr/include/boost` cd /usr/lib/boost/ mv * /usr/lib/

Note: just replace the file names if they are different.
