Ogre fails to build on Mac OS 10.8.3 during rosdep install

edit

Update:

I have finally managed to build it!!! It seems the Ogre homebrew installs is pretty old (1.7) and depends on an old boost (1.49). The current boost on homebrew is 1.53 as of this date.

The key was not using "boost149" keg-only, because it wasn't detected as satisfying the dependency properly. The following steps actually solved my problem:

$ cd /usr/local/Cellar
$ brew versions boost

Outputs many boost versions, among this one:

1.49.0 git checkout e40bc41 /usr/local/Library/Formula/boost.rb

$ git checkout e40bc41 /usr/local/Library/Formula/boost.rb
$ brew install boost
$ brew install ogre

Further info: And as a little side note as you seem to go through the same issues as me:

pydot and pyparsing are the next things that are gonna fail on your ros homebrew build now that ogre works. Fastest was to get it done is to download the packages from their respective homepages directly and then

sudo python setup.py install

For pyparsing you need to grab version 1.5.7 because that's the last version supporting python 2.7

------------ snip snip: for reference the original problem: -------------

I have the same problem, additional information:

Cant post links (man this is annoying), info is in ogre3d forums, forum ID in the URL is 2, thread ID is 72223

Seems to be an incompatibility with a newer boost version.
