title: Getting Boost 1.68 working on Ubuntu 18.04
body: <p>I want to use Boost 1.68 on Ubuntu 18.04. I noticed the Boost/libboost package available on Ubuntu is only 1.65, so I found a resource that suggested the following:</p>
  
  <pre><code>sudo apt-get remove libboost-all-dev
  sudo add-apt-repository ppa:mhier/libboost-latest
  sudo apt update
  sudo apt install libboost1.68
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>However, after running this I no longer have the boost include files in my <code>/usr/include</code> directory. If I do <code>sudo apt-get install libboost-all-dev</code>, it seems I can only add 1.65.1</p>
  
  <p><strong>Is there a way I can get boost and the include files from 1.68 to run on Ubuntu 18.04?</strong></p>
  
  <p>I'm still relatively new to Linux/ubuntu so perhaps I'm overlooking something simple? Thanks for your assistance.</p>
