I could see that there some packages exists on both EPEL and ELGIS
repo, we should avoid this duplication (if there is no specific
reasons).

Also, I could see some efforts on building a higher version of boost
for el (http://elgis.argeo.org/repos/testing/5.5/elgis-plus/SRPMS/),
1.34 or higher is required to build mapnik

I have recently ported the the boost (1.39.0-12) from fedora 13 to
EL5. This is tested with mapnik and works well, if you are interested,
let know. I can upload the same to some servers.
