I have done apt-get remove libboost-all-dev command. But, I can still see a directory /usr/include/boost. I want to remove everything related to Boost. How do I do this?

1Ask the packaging system: `dpkg -S /usr/include/boost` – waltinator Mar 03 '22 at 01:03

@waltinator I have removed the directory, but I can still see some libraries of libboost when I do ```sudo apt-get purge libboost-``` and press tab. I would like to remove all of these libraries, how to do it? – A J Mar 03 '22 at 05:44

Upon further inspection, I found that some of the file are in the directory ```/usr/share/lintian/overrides``` and also in ```/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu```. Should I remove it or not? – A J Mar 03 '22 at 06:08
