The other day I used apt-get install python-pyexiv2 on my ubuntu server, but it seems to have given me an old version. It's not compatible with the code I wrote in my local development environment so I'd like to update it.

I downloaded the latest tar.gz from the website, extracted it and ran scons as per the readme. But it will not build, I get the error src/exiv2wrapper.hpp:32:29: error: exiv2/preview.hpp: No such file or directory

I've also user apt-get to install libboost-python-dev and libexiv2-dev

Can anyone help me on this?

You probably need a newer version of libexiv2-dev too. The latest releases of pyexiv2 (≥ 0.2) require libexiv2 ≥ 0.19. See the developers page for detailed instructions.
