When I try to install postgis on ubuntu 16.04 it attempts to draw in a
huge list of dependencies (qt4, x11 libraries, mysql-common etc). See
below. It wants to install 245 new packages.
Attempting to get around the problem with --no-install-recommends
doesn't help much. It still has 219 new dependencies.
This is not usable like this on my server. Is there any way around
it? Or something I am doing wrong.
Regards
Bob
