Are you have a problem in particular that requires this?

From https://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_72_0/doc/html/mpi/getting_started.html#mpi.getting_started.config.bootstrap

Alternatively, you can explicitly provide the list of Boost libraries you want to build. Please refer to the --help option of the bootstrap script.

Which I am pretty sure the recipe does here

conan-center-index/recipes/boost/all/conanfile.py

Lines 533 to 538 in b247eb9

	libraries = ' '.join(libraries)
	command = "{bcp} {namespace} {alias} " \
	"{boostdir} {libraries} {outdir}".format(bcp=self._bcp_exe,
	namespace=namespace,
	alias=alias,
	libraries=libraries,

Edit also be related to #3900 (comment) #3872

Hey, guys, any updates? With this fix Boost.MPI at least properly uses the system MPI library,

[prince-chrismc]

Can you confirm the recipe revision you are using?

OP only modified one version... I assume this needs to be applied to all of them

Happy to this one alive again.
Well, could only test the patch on 1.72 at the time of writing. I have time to spend on the subject these comnig days, so if required I can update the PR on current master, and check for the other handled versions (1.69 to 1.76).

Please let me know if anything is required or desired from me.
