I had to do the following action manually in order to compile on ubuntu 10.10.
If it were cmake I might be able to provide patches, but I'm not fluent in gnu makefiles.
1. I've checked in a small change from ldo17 to the makefile. Can you please check again? (I don't think, that this change is relevant for you.)
2. If you are able and interested to port the makefile to cmake I'll add you as developer to this project.
3. Feel free to provide a deb package in a ppa. I'll try to help you where I can. (I've never created an deb file. ;) )
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
That directory already exists in the source tree, along with a few subdirectories. Are you sure you checked out the source properly?
