Header-Files missing in boost build

Question

I cloned the current boost sources from the github repository: https://github.com/boostorg/boost including all referenced child repository.

I did boostrap and build the sources on a OS X machine with the latest XCode command line tools. The build seems to work fine.

But in the $BOOST_ROOT/boost/ directory, where the header files are linked from the library directories (e.g. /boost/graph/adjacency_iterator.hpp -> ../../libs/graph/include/boost/graph/adjacency_iterator.hpp), some of the header files are missing. For example there is an boykov_kolmogorov_max_flow.hpp in ./libs/graph/include/boost/graph which is missing in the build output. The same happens if I call the install target. The header files are missing in the destination.

What do I have to do, that all header files get included in the build. Regards

As you can see in the documentation (Installing Modular Boost) you should

./bootstrap.sh
./b2 headers

to link the headers to the include directory when using Modular Boost
