[OSM-dev] Problem building osm2pgsql from source

Hi all: Please excuse me if this isn't the right list for this.

While following the directions for installing osm2pgsql from source, I get a fatal error while running 'make':

build_geometry.Tpo -c -o build_geometry.o build_geometry.cpp
build_geometry.cpp:29:26: fatal error: geos/version.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.

I'm following the directions here:
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Osm2pgsql

and here:
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Osm2pgsql#From_source_.28generic.29

I'm building libprotobuf-c0-dev from source as well, because I'd like PBF support.

I haven't found an obvious solution online for what to do next.

Thanks,

What distro are you building this on? 

The version.h file should be part of the geos library headers, e.g. 

Ubuntu:
$ dpkg -S /usr/include/geos/version.h 
libgeos-dev: /usr/include/geos/version.h

Fedora:
$ rpm -qf /usr/include/geos/version.h 
geos-devel-3.3.1-1.fc16.x86_64

Also try to install the libgeos++-dev package. 
Debian has moved the headers there recently.
