Somebody to help me? Thank’s Pit

You’ll need a package that provides boost_system and likely other parts of Boost. On openSUSE iirc that’s in boost-devel.

You might be able to take a Linux archive from Boost 1.89.0 and point to it with -DBOOST_ROOT=, but I’m thinking it’d be easier if your distro provides Boost development packages instead.
