This has nothing to do with packaging per se.

The reason why ldd shows correct paths is because your software is most
probably linked with libtool or any other linking wrapper that was smart
enough to realize that the binaries are being linked against the
libraries that reside outside of the standard loader search path, and
therefore hardcoded an RPATH right inside the binaries pointing to your
particular library tree.

1) We use CMake for build our C++ software. How to check linked or does not linked our software with libtool?

2) If RPATH hardcoded to binary, it means, our software would works fine after installation from packages on clean machine - is it right? Confirm/Disconfirm please.
 

So to answer your question, as long as you keep your copy of boost
outside the standard loader search path, you can rely on RPATH and
everything will work automagically.

3) On clean machine too?
 

As soon as you are willing to provide libraries usable by other
software, you should, of course, take care of running ldconfig from your
SPECs in the corresponding sections (%post and %postun, for instance),
and manage /etc/ld.so.conf.d files if you have them in non-standard
locations.

I modified CMakeLists.txt for our software: defined BOOST_ROOT variable, and FindBoost.cmake successfully resolved path to boost libraries.
We do not need make our boost available for other software.
Should we change anything?

In your case, obviously, you shouldn't do any of this, and keep your
boost private to your software, because otherwise, you are going to
break CentOS base packages that rely on boost.

I renamed boost packages (added prefix product_name-).
The primary reason - we do not want to build boost on every developer/build/customer machine. We want build boost once and use everywhere.
For delivery boost libraries/header files etc the most forward way - packages, and it is really awesome way.
