Description
Hello everyone.
I am trying to compile an external cpp project that uses boost (linked and built with CMake).
However the following error is thrown while compiling the project.

I am on Debian testing (trixie) and the boost library is installed via `apt install libboost1.83-all-dev`.
In my laptop I have dnf as a package manager, and I installed with `dnf install boost-devel` (it installs 1.81.0 version) and everything compiled (and ran) fine.
Am I missing something while installing the library?
Thanks in advance.

Research direction
Start by transcribing the compiler error from the linked image and reproducing the external C++ project build on Debian testing with Boost 1.83 installed through apt. Compare its CMake configuration and dependencies with the working Fedora setup using Boost 1.81. Done means identifying a reproducible installation or compatibility cause and documenting the minimal fix.
