[PyCUDA] 2014.1 git build

[Bruce Labitt]

I am trying to install PyCuda from git. I have Ubuntu 14.04, and CUDA6.5
installed. (Driver is 340.19 from Nvidia, CUDA from Nvidia) CUDA examples
seem to work, at least the ones supported my my hardware. (3.0) Partially
stuck on setting up siteconf.py correctly. Perhaps someone could help me
getting the right configuration.

1. Have libboost 1.54 installed from the repo. How do I find which version
of gcc was used to compile libboost?
2. What does CUDADRV_LIB_DIR mean? the directory where *what* file is
located? $ locate cannot find any file named cudadrv
3. For CUDART_LIB_DIR, can I use ${CUDA_ROOT}/lib, or do I need to use the
full path ${CUDA_ROOT}/lib/targets/x86_64-linux/lib ?
4. CXXFLAGS recommended? LDFLAGS?
5.Software updater is saying time for an updated kernel. If I update the
kernel, and its sources, do I need to reinstall the nvidia driver? Cuda6.5
required a new video driver to work.
6. When I did sudo make install, the installation complained it could not
find nvcc. This was because root did not have the correct PATH and
LD_LIBRARY_PATH. What is the best way to fix this? For myself, I just
edited my .bashrc file. Is this ok to do for root?

Thanks for any help!
