[Community] Newbie quick questions.

[Alex Mandel]

1. Is there a searchable archive of list traffic, say on something like 
gmane.org. I just joined to today but I want to make sure my questions 
haven't been asked before.

2. Looking briefly at the archive from this month I saw a comment from 
Kai that buildout 1.0 doesn't work. I just finished getting buildout 1.0 
to work, at least it appears to be working(PrimaGIS installed in Plone ok),
after 0.1 failed miserably for me.
Side note, neither worked on 64-bit, I'll get back to working on that 
later as it's a make problem with one of the referenced programs.

3. Look for a ticket later tonight with a diff for the 
primagis.buildout. Some of the files referenced have moved and I updated 
the ini files. There's also a quirk with the mapserver build where I had 
to use my system libgd because it didn't like the buildout one. I'm not 
positive if it's because the lib was labeled 2.0.0 and it wanted 2.0.16+ 
or if it really didn't like the build.

Summary of fixes to the buildout:
psycopg version change to 2-2.0.6, 2-2.0.5.1 not available online
http://cvs.gis.umn.edu/dist/mapserver-4.8.4.tar.gz moved to 
http://download.osgeo.org/mapserver/mapserver-4.8.4.tar.gz
I don't have the original hash so I can't tell if they are identical or 
not but the buildout took it.

Ah and for those curious, I did the build on Ubuntu 7.04 in a 32-bit 
chroot because my system is 64bit.

Thanks,
Alex
