I have reached to do

git clone --recursive https://github.com/boostorg/boost.git modular-boost
cd modular-boost
./bootstrap.sh

But when I do ./b2 headers as described here Getting Started with
Modular Boost
https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/wiki/TryModBoost#InstallingModularBoost
I get

./b2 headers
link.jam: No such file or directory
Jamroot:145: in modules.load
ERROR: rule "link-directory" unknown in module

Am I doing something wrong?

Best,
Vicente
