Giuseppe: Thank you for developing what appears to be a very useful piece
of troubleshooting software for serial communications.

I am trying to
compile serlook on Ubuntu 10.10 and am having some issues. First, Ubuntu
has not included arts (a dependency) in their packages for about 5 years now, so I don't
want to use it in case one of its dependencies breaks something else. What
functionality is lost if it is omitted? (Configure works using the
-without arts option.)

Also if I use {make}, there is an error that unsermake should be used. Again
this package is very old in Ubuntu and it is dependent on an old version
of python, which may break the system. Can I circumvent this and use make
instead?
