Hi Fabian,
Thanks for the feedback. The page really needed to be simplified
because much text that caused confusion was no longer relevant for
recent Ubuntu. I kept the old instruction for Ubuntu 8.04 or earlier
here:

Since Ubuntu 8.10, the boost that comes in Ubuntu is sufficient and
manual installation is not necessary.
libboost-all-dev installs the devpacks for all boost components.

Although autoconf is already installed as a dependency for automake, I
decided to list is explicitly.
libfftw3-dev is still there at the end of the first line?

Thanks. I didn't have a chance to verify all the install scripts and
there may indeed be an error or two.
