[pgrouting-users] [Fwd: Debian Lenny: compatibility between libcgal-dev and libboost1.35-dev]

[Daniel Kastl]

Hi Steve,

Well, I have a server with Debian but not with pgRouting ... probably 
this is one reason.

I agree that those dependencies are always a pain. Gaul doesn't come as 
a package, CGAL has a weired license. Actually both of them are just 
used for little parts, so it would be nice to be able to get rid of them 
... which requires some sort of sponsorship then if there is no 
volunteer (same problem with Windows binaries by the way referencing to 
the discussion on the PostGIS mailing list last night)

Daniel
