Good news: Ladies and gentlemen, Mapnik is there! Latest version, 2.2. This doesn't require neither geos nor rasterlite
Bad news: It requires newer gcc/g++. 4.2.1 is simply too old. Options: 1. use thumb toolchain (current approach), upload to non-free (and possibly require modrana to be built with 4.7.2) [if only that damn autobuilder allowed to build against cssu...] 2. use gcc 4.6 from extras and therefore possibly require to build modrana against gcc 4.6 3. Push it into my own repo 4. could be probably a temporary workaround, but still a workaround Modrana could have a separate version then - with use of mapnik, and a plain extras-devel without mapnik
What are your opinions, how will we handle that Mapnik is right there http://marmistrz.net63.net/public/mapnik/
