Ubuntu PPA for 3.0.x?

Open mojodna opened this issue 9 years ago • 4 comments

https://launchpad.net/~mapnik seems have fallen out of date. The last stable release that has a PPA is 2.2.x. Lacking a PPA for 3.0.x, what's the current approach for installing Mapnik 3 on Ubuntu?

I've not had time to make a 3.0.0 release, so unless someone wants to help package it the workaround is to use the nightly-trunk PPA which is master mapnik. The master of python-mapnik tracks it so it should work fine.

I got bit by the same thing as #34 when trying that (but that will work for me, thanks!). For those who run into this, the answer to is to build python-mapnik and not use the packages:

Is there an official PPA for mapnik 3 yet? I'm unable to build it from source on AWS due to running out of resources. I'd rather get an official release than rely on unknown nightlies.

This is still much needed.
