Hi,
Why do debian lenny and ubuntu 8.10 only have mapserver 5.0.3 in their
package lists?
MS4W has 5.2.0, this is feeling all wrong!

exactly.
i built my own 5.2.0 too. But i'm not a system admin really and it's a bit
of a hassle. If i were planning to compile my software myself i would use a
different distro (Gentoo?).
I've been posting some stuff on the ubuntu forums too, but i don't get too
much response there.
I guess that 5.
There is the FGS installer package (http://maptools.org/fgs/) for

osgeo4w has 5.0.2 (http://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo4w/wiki/pkg-mapserver) (like

seems to me that the changelog shows enough
oh they've got a package for linux too, that's great!
hm, they even included some sort of package manager.
i'll go check it out. This looks like it could be a great help - it's not

thanks!

In my experiences with Fedora, they tend to keep the same version of
MapServer that the OS version was released with (so Fedora 9 has 5.0.2,
or something like that, by default). As I want to use the latest
version, I build it for myself. I bet that distributions tend to stay
with what they ha
