Package: libboost-python1.63-dev
Version: 1.63.0+dfsg-1

As discussed and exemplified here: 
https://github.com/boostorg/python/issues/101
the Debian Boost.Python package does not feature numpy support that was 
introduced last December with the 1.63 version.

Following the comment (at the same url) from the maintainer, it would be 
likely optimal to create a new package for the numpy support in order 
not to introduce dependency on NumPy in the Boost.Python package itself.

HTH,
Sylwester
