It is recommended that you install from the repository or a nightly version, but if you still want to compile you can with these instructions.

1. Install dependencies:

   sudo apt-get install aptitude
   sudo aptitude install autopoint libguichan-0.8.1-1 libguichan-sdl-0.8.1-1 libphysfs1 libsdl-image1.2 \
   libsdl-mixer1.2 libsdl-net1.2 libsdl-ttf2.0-0 build-essential g++ g++-4.4 \
