Built and installed libraries using Ubuntu 24.04 on WSL with gcc-10, 
gcc-11, gcc-12, gcc-13 and gcc-14 toolsets.

I get an error during the configuration checks for all tolsets though:

error: No best alternative for

I think it's a warning or something that can be ignored, compilation and 
installation continues until the very end...

Best,
