Ubuntu precise is too old to satisfy your requirements. On Ubuntu 12.04 gcc 4.6 and boost 1.46 are available.

No, there's a repo for boost 1.55. I'm going to install it, then I'll download and try to compile the quickrank package.

I've found out that there's a repo for newer versions of the gcc tools. With g++4.8 (and a modification to the makefile that does not find the right g++ version), it's compiling.

For the record, the installed tool comes from this git repository: http://quickrank.isti.cnr.it/?page_id=11 and it compiled correctly against g++4.9.
You can find the binary in /home/gcube/quickrank/bin.

There's an ansible playbook that replicates all the steps but the makefile changes (that consist in setting CXX=g++-4.8 and removing the broken conditionals that tries to find the right executable).
