Hived takes 8 gb of ram to build. My machines with 8 gb ram+ are all on Ubuntu 20 and when I tried to build on that I got some boost version errors. Didn’t have too much time to dedicate to fixing that so I just asked for binaries so I could launch my node on the testnet.

That's cool. I naively tried to build with the latest version of Boost and it worked.

Huh weird. I wonder if the tag checkout didn’t work and I was working off master.

I downloaded the 1.76.0 source archive rather than do a git checkout
