As Visual 3 is available in the standard repositories already, I have built 
packages for Visual 5.

I've got some boost libraries in 1.34 and some in 1.35 available. But I 
suppose it's 1.35.

Regarding NumPy: On Jaunty 1.2.1 is current, so this one is used. On Intrepid 
it's some sort of 1.1.1.

Actually, I don't know how Canonical has managed to make numpy in a sub 1.3 
version work woth Python 2.6. Maybe it's just a subset, but for the samples it 
does seem to work. So I'm not complaining ... :)
