[Second attempt, as my first e-mail did not make it to the mailing list ]

Hi Joel:

I've
 been building PulseView, and I found too that the boost prerequisites 
were missing from the installation instructions. There is a previous 
discussion about it in this forum, it's here:

http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_name=50BDF936.2060401%40gmail.com&forum_name=sigrok-devel

I think the problem is that the build instructions are duplicated on these two 
pages:

  http://www.airwebreathe.org.uk/projects/index.php?title=PulseView
  http://sigrok.org/wiki/PulseView

However,
 the first page does not mention the boost prerequisites. It would 
probably be best to maintain just one set of build instructions.

Before
 I installed the required boost packages, cmake complained about it with
 a "-- Could NOT find Boost" warning, but it did not fail at that point.
 The build failed of course later on, but the linker error message 
wasn't obvious. It would be best if the cmake phase aborted with a clear
 error message at that point if it cannot find any of the boost 
libraries.

The second page does mention Qt as a build 
prerequisite, but does not include the corresponding Ubuntu package. I 
had to install "libqt4-dev" on my system.

Thanks,
  rdiez
