Too old for what? Not Mapnik 0.7.0, which again works with ubuntu- repository boost and icu.

The way to test this is to run: $ ldd /usr/local/libboost_regex.so which will likely should linking against the /usr/lib icu. ...so you need to rebuild it to link to the /usr/local/lib icu. This can be very hard because the bjam tools don't tend to work right with two versions of icu and tend to end up linking to /usr/lib even if you correctly pass the -s options like this: sudo ./bjam --with-regex toolset=gcc -sHAVE_ICU=1 -sICU_PATH=/usr/ local -a install So, what you may have to do is move the /usr/lib/libicu out of the way temporarily while you re-compile boost_regex. Or just follow my advice above and rollback to using the apt installed boost and icu. Or... lastly, recompile boost_regex with -sHAVE_ICU=0 to avoid the use of ICU altogether.
