Boost 1.58 installed, but boost_thread and boost_locale missing

Trying to build a project that requires boost. I get the following error:

Unable to find the requested Boost libraries. Boost version: 1.58.0 Boost include path: /usr/include Could not find the following Boost libraries: boost_thread boost_locale Some (but not all) of the required Boost libraries were found. You may need to install these additional Boost libraries. Alternatively, set BOOST_LIBRARYDIR to the directory containing Boost libraries or BOOST_ROOT to the location of Boost.

If I run

sudo apt-get install libboost-all-dev

I get

libboost-all-dev is already the newest version (1.58.0.1ubuntu1).

So I don't know what to do here. How can install these particular boost packages, or reinstall the whole boost package?

edit: Also, if I run apt-get remove libboost-all-dev , nothing seems to get removed. Running apt-get install libboost-all-dev afterwards still tells me I have the newest version.
