Thank you. This was very helpful. The problem was that I included only

--with-liblas-config=/usr/bin/liblas-config

in my ./configure call. I thought that this is enough. When I added

--with-liblas=yes

it started to work. After ./configure ... && make, I have r.in.lidar and
v.in.lidar.

I still have just libboost-thread-dev and libboost-program-options-dev, the
libboost-all-dev package is not necessary, although it is the simplest
option.

I don't understand the think with --with-liblas=yes, I really though I read
here that it is not necessary (once you have --with-liblas-config) and Yann
was saying that different combinations of --with-liblas* does not work for
him.

There is still the problem with different content of CFLAGS and CPPFLAGS
variables (r57541 and the patch from #2065) in ./configure and also I'm not
able to run the test program from ./configure myself. I don't know how this
is important.

Thanks all for help. I'll try this also on other computers with Ubuntu
14.04 and I'll let you know if it will not work.

(libLAS version is 1.7.0 which is the current stable release).
