For what it's worth - something that I needed and wasn't obvious from the documentation is the way to use RDKit libraries in my own project without getting entangled in boost jam weirdness - i.e. via regular make process. After some trial and error I have the following lines in my Makefile - perhaps it will save time to someone else if it's included in the docs:
RDKIT=../../rdkit-svn/ BOOST=../../boost_1_34_1 LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$(RDKIT)/bin RDKITINC=-I$(RDKIT)/Code/ -I$(RDKIT)/External/vflib-2.0/include/ \\ -I$(BOOST) RDKITLIB=-L$(RDKIT)/bin/ -lRDGeneral -lSmilesParse -lGraphMol \\ -lFileParsers -lDepictor -lRDGeometry -lSubstruct \\ -L$(RDKIT)/External/vflib-2.0/lib -lvf $RDKITINC is then added to the other "include" variables and $RDKITLIB to the libraries that are needed to be linked. Your set of libs in RDKITLIB may vary.
