[mapserver-users] Mapserver & GDAL in various Linux repositories

[William Kyngesburye]

I vaguely remember this, but didn't pay much attention to it ;)

It would be good to update the FGS page to show which versions are  
included.

Are the FGS builds of Apache, PHP, Postgres, ... and basic libraries  
required for FGS MapServer GDAL, and other GIS tools and libraries?   
Or can they use system copies of these?  Clients may not be willing or  
able to install duplicate copies of stuff available at the same  
version in the system, especially on an existing server.

Also, are there plans for 64bit builds?

All generalizations are dangerous, even this one.
