when` trying to compile bitcoin from source on unix I get this issue

wallet/walletutil.cpp: In function ‘std::vector<boost::filesystem::path> ListWalletDir()’: wallet/walletutil.cpp:60:32: error: ‘relative’ is not a member of ‘fs’ paths.emplace_back(fs::relative(it->path(), wallet_dir)); ^ wallet/walletutil.cpp:71:36: error: ‘relative’ is not a member of ‘fs’ paths.emplace_back(fs::relative(it->path(), wallet_dir)); ^ Makefile:6894: recipe for target 'wallet/libbitcoin_wallet_a-walletutil.o' failed

im guessing it has something to do with missing the boost file system dependency but ive tried downloading and building boost from source and ive tried resetting my vps 3 times to start again. When configure is searching for the file system dep is finds it but i still cant build it.

Fixed in #14531.

The problem is that usage of a Boost 1.64 function fs::relative was introduced into the codebase (master) in #14291. There is currently a PR open to remove its usage #14531.
