Build info is here :
http://boson.eu.org/install.php
(you will need a "build directory" outside boson.)
** 'cd Desktop/build-boson/'
** and then command 'cmake ../boson-all-0.13/'
Other methods will cause various errors.
* Dedendencies : openal (libopenal-devel)

No luck finding a workaround.
I did try to use the 2 patches, mentioned later.
To apply a patch e.g.: 'patch -p0 < boson_0.13-4.diff'
There are packages, version 0.13, and patches here :
patch, line 3 from the bottom :
http://archive.ubuntu.uasw.edu/pool/universe/b/boson/
including all packages.
patch : [boson_0.13-4.diff.gz] Debian Lenny
http://packages.debian.org/lenny/games/boson
and again packages.
Packages for rpm, version 0.13, Suse 10, PCLinuxOS,
Mandriva 2007..2008 :
http://rpm.pbone.net/index.php3
... use "Search" > Advanced RPM Search, please.
Good Luck !
P.S.: The patches will probably only be useful
when building a Debian package.
