Now possible since SLC6 support dropped.

Advantages of switching from boost Python to PyBind11:

  • Simplifies our Python bindings codebase - e.g:
    • To-/From-Python converters for STL collections automatically defined, simply by including a specific header
    • Exception translation functionality (rather than needing to be implemented & maintained in house)
  • Better documentation
  • Removes restriction to Python version(s) used to build boost
