I already installed ZNC in a past, like a breeze.

This time, I'm stuck with en arror about Boost::locale

When I do cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX="$HOME/.local", I got :

-- Checking for module 'libargon2'
--   Package 'libargon2', required by 'virtual:world', not found
-- Could NOT find boost_locale (missing: boost_locale_DIR)
-- Boost.Locale or gettext (msgfmt) is not found, disabling i18n support
-- Will build cctz
+---------------------------------------+

Now you can run 'make' to compile ZNC

-- Configuring done
CMake Error at src/CMakeLists.txt:67 (target_link_libraries):
  Target "znclib" links to:

    Boost::locale

  but the target was not found.  Possible reasons include:

    * There is a typo in the target name.
    * A find_package call is missing for an IMPORTED target.
    * An ALIAS target is missing.



-- Generating done

And if when I make :

[ 28%] Building CXX object src/CMakeFiles/znc.dir/main.cpp.o
[ 29%] Linking CXX executable znc
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lBoost::locale: No such file or directory

make[1]: *** [CMakeFiles/Makefile2:438: src/CMakeFiles/znc.dir/all] Error 2
make: *** [Makefile:136: all] Error 2

I downloaded and compiled the Boost Library (https://www.boost.org/doc/user-guide/getting-started.html) in my ~/local but I don't know how to "include" the lib in the buid, or how to fix the missing link.

I'm not root on this server (no sudo), and a real noob in C++.

Anyone can help me ?
Thx 🙏

Hmmm... I added export boost_locale_DIR=/home/memyselfandi/local to my .bashrc, sourced it, and now I have another message on cmake :

-- Checking for module 'libargon2'
--   Package 'libargon2', required by 'virtual:world', not found
CMake Warning at /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/cmake/Boost-1.74.0/BoostConfig.cmake:141 (find_package):
  Could not find a configuration file for package "boost_locale" that exactly
  matches requested version "1.74.0".

  The following configuration files were considered but not accepted:

    /home/memyselfandi/local/lib/cmake/boost_locale-1.89.0/boost_locale-config.cmake, version: 1.89.0

Call Stack (most recent call first):
  /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/cmake/Boost-1.74.0/BoostConfig.cmake:258 (boost_find_component)
  CMakeLists.txt:264 (find_package)

Seems the lib is installed somewhere on the server but whit a different version ?

I downloaded and compiled the Boost Library

You should not need that. Unless you specifically want i18n support. This may be a difference between how cmake was finding boost itself before vs how boost does it now

Can you pastebin your CMakeCache.txt and cmake --system-information while in the build directory?
