Hello everyone,<br>
<br>
I am new to ubuntu SAUCY and I must confess the transition has not been<br>
really easy for me. on windows everything seems pretty much straight<br>
forward but I am getting frustrated because It seems when I try to install<br>
either pyproj, gdal, mapnik, proj4, Postgre/postgis and other Web gis<br>
packages they probably don't work together and their dependencies aren't<br>
the same.<br>
<br>
my question is isn't there an easy way to get all these packages to work<br>
together?<br>
when I install QGIS it removes something else same goes to mapnik.<br>
<br>
I install mapnik the other day it even crash and messed up my system, had<br>
to do a clean OS install all over again.<br>
<br>
I really need help on how to go about getting these installed because I<br>
cant work without all of them.<br>
<br>
<br>
Thanks Anthony.<br>

It's in french but you can try to follow this road map with VirtualBox and<br>
Vagrant. You can enjoy UbuntuGIS on your Windows. Only have to add Mapnik.<br>
Don't forget to open connexion of Postgresql..<br>
