Hello Andres and Christopher,

Great to see movement on this. Two thoughs:

1) Andres I took a quick look at your diff, and noticed that you are passing in the python version both in the configure step and the compile/install/clean step, which is unneeded. If you configure with

scons configure $(SCONS_FLAGS) PYTHON=/usr/bin/python$*

you can drop all command line flags in the compile/install/clean steps otherwise it will prompt the Mapnik scons scripts to re-configure (which may not be the intention) every time a flag is picked up.

2) When is the latest time we (upstream) can release 0.6.1 to have a chance for it to be included in Karmic? And what can I/we do to help with the boost compile problem on Karmic?

Cheers,

Dane Springmeyer
