In response to the question in comment #8 about the use of Mapnik.  Mapnik can
be used either as a Python or a C++ library.  Apart from the demo code included
you need to write either a python or C++ program to do something useful.  Mapnik
is mainly used in the OpenStreetMap project, http://www.openstreetmap.org/.

The ultimate plan is to submit all of the components of the OSM  toolchain to
Fedora.  The goals of OSM fit neatly with Fedora - free map data to allow the
development of novel GIS applications.

I'll work through the issues you raise over the next couple of days and submit
an updated SPEC and SRPM.
