Interesting, Mine has been upgraded over mutliple versions for several
years and I do not see the problem.  I wonder whether you have installed
something not from the standard repositories that is causing this.
Just to check, are saying that running (on 18.10)
sudo apt install  libboost-filesystem1.65.1  libboost-date-time1.65.1
libboost-locale1.65.1  libboost-regex1.65.1
did not run smoothly?  I would be interested to see the errors if you are
in a position to easily repeat that.
