Correct.
From my small c++ knowledge if I'd like to develop some boost python modules which need some additional scientific (scitbx) functions I could just link my code against libscitbx_boost_python instead of libboost_python?
It conceptually makes sense. I may be missing a technical details but I'd say you are correct again. But I have to think thoroughly how to modify the SConscript to achieve the change you propose.
Are the features or functions documented somewhere?
Nope. Luc
