I am attempting to compile v3.8 for the first time, and the
configuration fails with the message:
----------[BEGIN MESSAGE EXCERPT]----------
...

configure: error: in `/home/ricky/povray/povray-3.8.0-alpha.9861167':

See `config.log' for more details
--------------[END MESSAGES]--------------
The config.log reported:

-----------[END LOG EXCERPT]-----------
I omitted the lboost options and got this message:
----------[BEGIN MESSAGE EXCERPT]----------

library (still not installed) please specify $BOOST_ROOT in your

sure you have boost installed, then check your version number looking in
<boost/version.hpp>. See http://randspringer.de/boost for more
documentation.

The URL given in the message isn't much help if one doesn't know where
to go from there. A search on boost on my system yielded:

However, a search for version.hpp turned up only the files in the
POV-Ray distribution.
Is there a new way to invoke the boost library? Or did my OS upgrade
last weekend screw everything up? Is there something I should do with
the boost library in the POV-Ray distribution?
OS: openSUSE Leap 15.0 (GNU/Linux)
