Charles,

sorry I missed the obvious info in your subject line. I build the release kit for 64-bit on Ubuntu 20.04 using only packages installed from the official repositories other then Hamlib. The CMake find_package command will match any version greater than or equal to the required one, our code is written to support any Boost version from 1.63 onwards (1.62 onwards from the next release).

You do not need to build a more recent version of Boost than the one in the Ubuntu 20.04 repositories.

Ubuntu 20.04, Bill.  It compiled just fine with Boost 1.74. Now I should be good for a while.

Just an FYI.  I had a small problem compiling 2.3.0 rc2 because it requires a new version of Boost.  I did not have any problems previously, from version 2.1 through 2.3.0 rc1, and I really don't know if Boost was even installed.  Nonetheless, I have placed the link below.  I complied a default installation of Boost and the WSJT-X build proceeded normally.  The required version is Boost 1.63 but the latest is 1.74.  I can't speak for Windows users but I would guess if you are compiling from source you will need it.

Hi Charles,

I guess you are building for Debian 9 or something based on it. The next release of WSJT-X will build using Boost v1.62 which should solve your issue using distribution versions of Boost.
