How can I install boost-devel in Ubuntu 12.04?

Question

I want to compile flvtool++, but it requires boost-devel libraries.

I tried to install it via this command:

sudo apt-get install boost-devel

But I got the error:

E: Unable to locate package boost-devel

Is there an other way to compile flvtool++ source or any 64-bit binaries?

Solution

To develop with the Boost libraries in Ubuntu/Debian, you need to install the libboost-all-dev package:

sudo apt-get install libboost-all-dev
