The current download link for boost_1_67_0.tar.gz in the setup script is broken. It redirects to https://landing.jfrog.com/reactivate-server/boostorg, which appears to be a dead link or paywall, causing wget to download an HTML page instead of the expected archive, thereby stalling the installation process.

To resolve this issue, I have replaced the broken link with an alternative, functional link: https://archives.boost.io/release/1.67.0/source/boost_1_67_0.tar.gz

Updated the download link for Boost to the new source.
