The 8.04 (and lower) versions of Ubuntu use GEOS v2.2.3 in their binary packages,
1043-
which is incompatible with GeoDjango. Thus, do *not* use the binary packages
1044-
for GEOS or PostGIS and build some prerequisites from source, per the instructions
1045-
in this document; however, it is okay to use the PostgreSQL binary packages.
