Could not find a version of the library!

Question

[majeedaasim]

I am trying to install SPOCS software. After downloading and extracting the software files I tried to configure it as mentioned in the userguide with the command: ./configure --with-boost=/path/to/boost

I find the path to boost by typing whereis boost command, it gives me the following result

boost: /usr/include/boost

Then I used this path of boost while configuring as

./configure --with-boost=/usr/include/boost

But it gives me the following error

checking whether the Boost::Program_Options library is available... no
checking whether the Boost::Date_Time library is available... yes
configure: error: Could not find a version of the library!

It would help if you tell your OS and its version, and the versions of SPOCS, Boost and GCC.

On CentOS 7 yum install boost-program-options would solve this problem..
