 Tricky thing: libGDAL 1.9 has been built to depend on libGEOS 3.3.2, and libGEOS 3.3.3 is listed as the preferred library in the Support Matrix.
 
+So, let's see if we can get all of the supporting libraries to the recommended versions.

 === Build GEOS 3.3.x ===
 
 PostGIS 2.0 requires GEOS >= 3.3.2 for topology support, however Ubuntu 11.10 only has GEOS 3.2.2 available in packages, so it needs to be built from source. If you don't need topology, you don't ''need'' to build this component, but it is highly recommended.
