MaSuRCA installation error

I'm trying to install MaSuRCA on Mac but it can't find a working installation of Boost 1.46.0

##Could not find a working installation of Boost. Set BOOST_ROOT to the path where the Boost headers are installed or set BOOST_ROOT=install to have it downloaded from the Internet and installed locally. For example: BOOST_ROOT=install ./install.sh ##

Help me to get through this error please

assembly masurca boost

The error says that you should install boost. Have you tried googling this? "install boost mac" or such.

Boost is not found. You have two options:

  1. implement the command BOOST_ROOT=install ./install.sh Download and decompress boost (https://sourceforge.net/projects/boost/files/boost/), and then
  2. implement the command like BOOST_ROOT=/share/home/zhangyj/biosoft/boost_1_72_0 ./install.sh

The second option might be more stable than the first.
