Issue

Following up the work on conda-forge/boost-feedstock#164, the package could be improve to have boost libboost-python-devel as build dependencies and libboost-python as host/run dependency.

The current package installs:

  + libboost-python           1.82.0  py311h92ebd52_6  conda-forge      120kB
  + libboost-headers          1.82.0  ha770c72_6       conda-forge       14MB
  + libboost                  1.82.0  h6fcfa73_6       conda-forge     Cached
  + libboost-devel            1.82.0  h00ab1b0_6       conda-forge       36kB
  + libboost-python-devel     1.82.0  py311h781c19f_6  conda-forge       17kB

where libboost-headers (thousands of small files) is not necessery.

Which version did you look at?

This is already the case in the current package 9.4.2 (build 1) after #31

We depend on libboost-python-devel as host dependency (build time). And the run requirements (that we get from the boost run_exports) are only libboost and libboost-python.

This is what I got in my env (when updating from 9.4.1):

cpptango                  9.4.2                hd7a31c2_1    conda-forge
pytango                   9.4.2           py311h995a085_1    conda-forge
boost                     1.82.0               h781c19f_6    conda-forge
boost-cpp                 1.82.0               h44aadfe_6    conda-forge
libboost                  1.82.0               h6fcfa73_6    conda-forge
libboost-devel            1.82.0               h00ab1b0_6    conda-forge
libboost-headers          1.82.0               ha770c72_6    conda-forge
libboost-python           1.82.0          py311h92ebd52_6    conda-forge
libboost-python-devel     1.82.0          py311h781c19f_6    conda-forge

It seems that is related to the update since a fresh install indeed gives the correct result:

  + libboost             1.82.0  h6fcfa73_6           conda-forge     Cached
  + libboost-python      1.82.0  py311h92ebd52_6      conda-forge     Cached

Thanks!
