Is the problem that apt installed it in a directory where it was not found by 
CMake in its search for Boost?  If so, the best thing would be to submit a pull 
request in which you add that directory (unless it's something extremely custom 
that nobody else would ever see) to the list of directories to search for Boost 
components.  I think you can just add to the find_package line in 
src/cmake/externalpackages.cmake file:

    find_package (Boost 1.40 REQUIRED 
                  COMPONENTS filesystem regex system thread
                  PATHS /your/path/here
                 )
