Serviteur,
Since I use Fedora 13, I used
http://packages.ubuntu.com to search the package for you.
On Karmic the boost version is 1.38.1 which means you will not need to install something from outside apt-get. So install simply by using either synaptic or on the terminal use the command
$ sudo apt-get install libboost-dev
Now.. reading the INSTALL from the source code I see that the requirements are:
"
- Boost version 1.33 or above
http://www.boost.org- Zlib version 1.2.1 or above
http://www.zlib.net- LibPNG version 1.2.5 or above
http://www.libpng.org- LibJPEG version 6b or above
http://www.ijg.org- LibTIFF version 3.6.1 or above
http://www.libtiff.org"
So for solving completly the dependency problem you should:
$ sudo apt-get install libboost-dev zlib1g-dev zlibc libpng3-dev libjpeg62-dev libtiff4-dev
Now probably all the dependencies should be solved
EDIT:
Forgot to say there are 2 optional dependencies openexr and SDL
So to install them:
$ sudo apt-get install libopenexr-dev libsdl1.2-dev libsdl1.2debian-all
