Could not find a package configuration file provided by "boost_system"

[jmp75]

Context: trying to compile on EASI-hub
cmake installed from source because

cloud-based image on AWS. the apt repository shows a libboost package (no sub-packages like in Debian)

CMake Error at /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/cmake/Boost-1.74.0/BoostConfig.cmake:141 (find_package):

    boost_system-config.cmake

  Add the installation prefix of "boost_system" to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH or set
  "boost_system_DIR" to a directory containing one of the above files.  If
  "boost_system" provides a separate development package or SDK, be sure it
  has been installed.

If I compare the directory "/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/cmake/boost_system-1.74.0" on my machine compared to the AWS image, probably Ubuntui, indeed there is only a subset of the subdrectory in the image. How to I install the modules if not available from APT?
