The better link now is the Linux:build page,
http://www.gramps-project.org/wiki/index.php?title=Linux:Build_from_source#Full_install_walkthrough_Gramps_4.0_Ubuntu_derivatives
The GEPS page will no longer be updated, as that is released.
If Gramps itself is installed via deb, only the part starting at 'spell
