I am trying to get osmium examples running as per instructions (http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Osmium/Quick_Start), but compilation of the examples fails with errors:

System is Ubuntu Oneiric (but I can switch to any other Debian or Ubuntu version if recommended). Is someone able to help me figure out what is going wrong?

As it says in the README you need gdal installed for OGR support:

GDAL (for OGR support) http://gdal.org/ Debian/Ubuntu: libgdal1-dev

I actually found out last week (searching for "gdal-config: Command not found"), but my comment obviously had not been processed.

May I add the package to debian/ubuntu example command on the wiki page about quick start?
