The osmcoastline README mentions the ubuntugis repository. Yes, it could probably be made clearer how to install this, but then I'd have to explain it for each and every distribution. Adding extra repositories is a rather drastic step, it is done differently in different distributions and it is not necessary in all distributions. Unfortunately there is a minimum of expertise and experience involved in compiling your own software. Feel free to add your experiences and build instructions to the wiki. > sudo add-apt-repository ppa:mapnik/v.2.2.0 > > The mapnik repo has a more up-to-date build of boost. This should not be necessary. Older versions of boost are fine.
