I can't speak for everything on there, but I do know that I tested (and tweaked slightly) the "manual 14.04 instructions" about a month ago because I suspected that some of the changes to the OSM stack might require a change (though it turned out it was mainly the way that the Natural Earth data was packaged that did). I suspect that the Leaflet stuff should be still OK too (though very unrepresentative of what is possible with Leaflet now).

so we do need an overhaul of the whole process, but a reliable base framework does not exist and the diversity between linux distributions is making that more and more difficult. Personally Ubuntu is not practical for me as all my production servers are SUSE based,

Ubuntu may not be an option for you but it doesn't mean that "a reliable base framework does not exist". It'd be like saying that a recipe for pizza doesn't work because you can't digest cheese**...

... And apache is perhaps not the best choice for production web servers anyway ...

Using something other than Apache would require using something other than mod_tile (perhaps see *), but that would be a different set of instructions, which I'm not aware of existing currently.

Cheers,

Andy
