This project seems to be using a deprecated feature of libsigc++. sigc::group no longer exist in recent versions of libsigc++ but older version won't fit with recent versions of libglibmm. I've failed to make it since a recent update of debian. This is really awesome project. Please take care of it!!!

I had luck on Debian 8.2 jessie following these instructions:

(I cloned and compiled the version on Github, not the one from sourceforge, not sure if there's a difference)
there is no source code on sourceforge any more, the current repository is https://github.com/thjaeger/easystroke
