Cmake cannot find boost_python and boost_numpy

Writer Andrew Mclaughlin

I'm trying to install a software which requires Boost. So I downloaded boost by running this command

 wget 

and then running bootstrap and then the generated b2.

When I'm running the cmake command for the software I'm trying to install I get the following error:

cmake -DWITH_BOOST_STATIC=OFF -DBUILD_INTERFACE_PYTHON=ON -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=OFF -DBUILD_APPS=ON -DBUILD_TESTS=OFF cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=~/installations/face_swap -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ..
-- Boost version: 1.65.1

You may need to set BOOST_LIBRARYDIR to the directory containing Boost libraries or BOOST_ROOT to the location of Boost.

It's looking in /usr/local/include but I can see I have files like libboost_python3.so at /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/.

How can I proceed from here?
