If I search for

b2/bjam specifying location of prebuilt library files

if get to

https://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_65_0/doc/html/bbv2/reference.html

but not a more recent version and if I take up the offer

"This is the documentation for an old version of Boost..."

I don't get anything for Boost.Build, but all the other libraries

https://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_67_0/doc/html/bbv2/reference.html exists but no later.

I'd hope that I would at least get a reference to

https://boostorg.github.io/build/manual/develop/index.html

Boost.Build User Manual
Rene Rivera, Vladimir Prus, Steven Watanabe

which looks a lot smarter (though much of the same content).

It would be nice to improve this so that searches like this work nicer, somehow providing at least a link to the new version.
