gEDA-user: installing 1.5.2 - progress?

[KURT PETERS <peterskurt@xxxxxxx>]

   no joy on doing the apt-get build-dep's
    -- make clean yields
   make[2]: Leaving directory
   `/home/kurt/Documents/gedacompile/libgeda-1.5.2'
   make[1]: Leaving directory
   `/home/kurt/Documents/gedacompile/libgeda-1.5.2'
   ( cd geda-symbols-1.5.2; make clean )
   make[1]: Entering directory
   `/home/kurt/Documents/gedacompile/geda-symbols-1.5.2'
   make[1]: *** No rule to make target `clean'.  Stop.
   make[1]: Leaving directory
   `/home/kurt/Documents/gedacompile/geda-symbols-1.5.2
   'make open' does fine, but geda-utils unpacks into geda-docs for some
   reason:
   'make reconfig' gives:
   make[2]: Leaving directory
   `/home/kurt/Documents/gedacompile/libgeda-1.5.2'
   make[1]: Leaving directory
   `/home/kurt/Documents/gedacompile/libgeda-1.5.2'
   ( cd geda-symbols-1.5.2; make clean )
   make[1]: Entering directory
   `/home/kurt/Documents/gedacompile/geda-symbols-1.5.2'
   make[1]: *** No rule to make target `clean'.  Stop.
   make[1]: Leaving directory
   `/home/kurt/Documents/gedacompile/geda-symbols-1.5.2
   I'm not mv geda-docs-1.5.2 to geda-utils-1.5.2, untaring the original
   geda-docs, and seeing if that works.
   Kind of makes me wonder if I'm the only person that has tried this...
   literally.
   Regards,
   kurt

Wish I had thought of that... or better yet, it was somewhere in the install do
cumentation.

Have you tried this command for getting the compile dependencies?

sudo apt-get build-dep geda-gschem
sudo apt-get build-dep geda
sudo apt-get build-dep geda-gnetlist
sudo apt-get build-dep geda-gsymcheck
sudo apt-get build-dep geda-symbols
sudo apt-get build-dep geda-utils

Whether you have those geda-* packages installed or not, these commmands might
get you all
you need to compile from source on kubuntu.
