Mark,
I made some changes based on your input. Feel free to correct anywhere I went wrong.
Admittedly I'm very new to Linux and a lot of commands are still cryptic to me. A lot of the instructions I curled from the PostGIS thread.
http://postgis.refractions.net/pipermail/postgis-users/2008-August/020746.html
And I liked them - whether right or wrong - because they required very little thought on my part, didn't require searching the web to figure out where do I get geos, or proj or whatever
and of course they worked for me :).
I'm still in a bit of disagreement of the hard-coding of links to dependencies.
On the one hand I see your point, but on the other hand - my thinking is the relationship between the proj, postgis, and geos camps is very close that we can easily correct any links that are broken and people can easily do a google to find a broken link or submit a bug to complain.
I think the convenience of having the link right there and ability to copy and paste is useful and the statement that - for x version of PostGIS, these are the preferred versions of these packages to use.
Thanks,
Regina
