(Get the code!)
Allison,
Yes, the tarball which we provided will definitely build against those versions of Boost & Qt.
The real question we have here is will it be possible to specify dependencies greater than those bundled with the current version of Ubuntu and then build directly against those dependencies rather that the version in Ubuntu? The specific motivations for this are:
1) To move to a later version of WebKit (which is contained in Qt 4.8) and then eventually upgrade to Qt 5.0 (which will have the v8 JavaScript engine). Is that sort of later version binding possible for applications in the Software Center?
2) To move to a later version of Boost (1.47) which has a much improved SSL implementation?
Thanks,
Josh
