im building boost 1.87 and i only need thread+asio

building:

cd /home/test
wget https://archives.boost.io/release/1.87.0/source/boost_1_87_0.tar.bz2
tar -xf boost_1_87_0.tar.bz2
cd boost_1_87_0
./bootstrap.sh --prefix=/home/test/boost_1_87_0_installed
./b2 variant=release --with-thread install

the resulting install folder

/home/test/boost_1_87_0_installed
 Â  lib folder is ~500 KB
 Â  include is ~142 MB

is it possible to only have the needed library includes in the include
folder?
