Depend on which distro you are using.

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.
