I'm asking because at this moment we have in CCP4 two versions of boost, one in cctbx and the other for building DSSP (it uses different subset of boost libs than cctbx). It would make sense to use a single version for both, if possible.

It makes no sense to have two version. Just fix the code in one of them.

Well, fixing the code can solve any problem, but it can be time consuming. I was wondering if it's possible to build cctbx with external boost without changing the code. Or what are minimal changes needed to make it work.

BTW you have a nice collection of patches: https://github.com/gentoo-science/sci/tree/ccp4-640/sci-libs/cctbx/files/201...
