Research direction

Start by locating the OpenUSD version and dependency declarations used to build the plugin, then review the CMake and Boost requirements that accompany them. Determine whether a newer OpenUSD version can build successfully with the repository's dependencies; done means the supported version is updated and a from-scratch build no longer hits the reported dependency issues.

Description

Hi folks,

This dependency on a two-year-old version of OpenUSD is causing major friction when trying to build the plugin from scratch - I'm encountering repeated build issues with CMake, Boost and other subdependencies since so many of the relevant versions have now been deprecated. Is there a major blocker in updating the OpenUSD version this compiles against to something more recent? Thank you.
