Depend on which distro you are using.

CentOS release 5.5 (Final)

Code:
rpm -qa | grep boost

Actually, the OP mentioned Centos, so
Code:
rpm -qa|egrep -e libquvi -e  libboost -e  libpcrecpp -e libcurl

you can also use yum ( though JUST to check rpm is quicker)

Code:
su -
yum search boost
--- or ---
yum info boost
if it is installed it will be noted
Code:
su -
yum search libquvi
-- if there --
yum install libquvi

Or:
Code:
find / -name "libboost*"
locate libboost
...
if someone compiled it from source code.
