It can be installed in a different directory; if so,
make sure to add that path to the configure script when compiling Kea.

+STEP 3: Install a recent BOOST version
Kea requires a reasonably recent Boost version. Unfortunately, the
version available in CentOS 7 is too old, so a newer Boost version is
.. code-block:: console
- $ wget -nd https://dl.bintray.com/boostorg/release/1.65.1/source/boost_1_65_1.tar.gz
+ $ wget -nd https://boostorg.jfrog.io/artifactory/main/release/1.65.1/source/boost_1_65_1.tar.gz
$ tar -zxvf boost_1_65_1.tar.gz
$ cd boost_1_65_1/
$ ./bootstrap.sh
them specifies the destination path where the sources are to be
compiled.
+Alternatively, some systems provide newer boost packages. For example,

+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+ $ ./configure --with-boost-include=/usr/include/boost169 --with-boost-lib-dir=/usr/lib64/boost169
