CMake can not find Boost library -

i trying build c++ project uses boost , cmake build system. in cmakelists.txt there following standard lines:

find_package(boost required components serialization date_time) include_directories(${boost_include_dirs}) set(libs ${libs} ${boost_libraries}) 

i have installed boost repository (fedora 16 in case) , cmake can not find (boost_dir-not_found).

i have looked through similar issues in internet , not find appropriate solution work in case. in cases there advices use separate boost install sources not take lot of time compile since use virtualbox.

could me issue?

best regards,

alex
