Hello,
I'm currently trying to build Moses with Boost 1.68.0 (not the latest
version, but this is for compatibility reasons with a project I'm using for
my thesis). However, the build fails with the following error (full error
log is attached):

/home/users/abeaton/project/thesis/VTLM2/data/mosesdecoder2/opt/boost_1_68_0/tools/build/src/tools/types/docbook.jam:8:
in load
ERROR: rule "Copyright" unknown in module "docbook".

And here is the exact command I used to build Moses:

./bjam --with-boost=opt/boost_1_68_0

Is this a known problem, and is there a fix besides using a more current
version of Boost? I've also tried with the latest version (1.85.0), but then
I receive another error since the boost_1_85_0/tools/build/src/bootstrap.jam
file seems to be missing in the latest version.

Best,
Andrew

boost 1.68 worked for me (on Ubuntu 22.04, gcc 11.4). Make sure you use
absolute paths in you bjam command arguments. This is what I use to compile
boost
./bootstrap.sh
./b2 -j4 --prefix=$PWD --libdir=$PWD/lib64 --layout=system link=static
install
This is what I use to compile moses
./bjam -j 6 --with-boost=/home/hihoan/local/workspace/github/boost_1_68_0
