Summary0001906: Missing Boost packages from the apt-get instructions for Ubuntu when building 3.0 from source code
DescriptionAs mentioned by Henry in http://www.openfoam.org/mantisbt/view.php?id=1895 - the package(s) for Boost (libboost-all-dev) are needed on Ubuntu. But the instructions are missing from the instructions on the official instructions pages:

 - http://www.openfoam.org/download/source.php
 - http://www.openfoam.org/download/git.php

In addition, the "libxt-dev" package is needed for ParaView, since OpenFOAM doesn't need X by default. I.e. this package can change from the 1st to the 2nd line.
TagsNo tags attached.

I forgot to mention that if you prefer to give the minimum packages needed from Boost, then these should work:

  libboost-system-dev libboost-thread-dev
