building hypertable 0.9.0.10 on Ubuntu hardy

I saw hypertable first about half a year ago, and since then I felt like giving it a try. Today I finally took the time to download it (0.9.0.10 alpha), and tried to build it on my Ubuntu hardy. README file seemed to be precise, so I followed the instructions, and installed the packages below with apt-get as follows:

apt-get install cmake g++ libdb4.6++-dev liblog4cpp4-dev libexpat1-dev libreadline5-dev libboost-dev libboost-iostreams-dev libboost-program-options-dev libboost-python-dev libboost-thread-dev libgoogle-perftools-dev graphviz doxygen sun-java5-jdk

Then I run cmake as follows (after creating and entering build directory: mkdir -p ~/build/hypertable ; cd ~/build/hypertable):

cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=~/hypertable -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE="Debug" ~/src/hypertable-0.9.0.10-alpha

Cmake checked all dependencies and created the appropriate makefiles to the build dir:

So all I had to do now is to start the build process by issueing make. All seemed to be compiling fine, but at 82% when building AccessGroup.o, it died with the following error message:

/usr/include/boost/multi_index/detail/index_node_base.hpp:22:42: error: boost/serialization/access.hpp: No such file or directory

Well, after some minutes I figured out this is beacuse boost serialization module was not there, so I installed it:
apt-get install libboost-serialization-dev
After this, the build procedure succesfully finished, so the only remaining step was to issue the make install command.

And voila... now I have a working hypertable on my Ubuntu hardy. Even though the stuff is still alpha, the build process is fairly painless. The only bug I found is the lack of the boost serialization module check in cmake (however README suggests to install libboost-.*-dev, I don't like unnecessary packages hanging around, so this cmake issue is still a bug).
Now it's time to take a deeper breath in the hyperspace...
