Boost.System is header-only since Boost 1.69 and the compiled library was dropped altogether in recent releases, so requiring the `system` component makes FIND_PACKAGE fail at configure time on current distributions (reproduced with Boost 1.91). Linking Boost::filesystem and Boost::thread pulls in everything that was previously taken from Boost::system. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

FIND_PACKAGE(Boost REQUIRED COMPONENTS system thread filesystem)fails at configure time on current distributions, because Boost.System has been header-only since Boost 1.69 and the compiled library was removed in recent releases. Reproduced on Arch with Boost 1.91.This drops
systemfrom the required components and from the link list.Boost::filesystemandBoost::threadalready carry the interface targets that previously came fromBoost::system, so nothing else changes and the build links as before.🤖 Generated with Claude Code
