I'm following this guide (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingEasyHowTo) and the one on the qtractor page but I'm failing big time. This is what I've done, pardon my noobness:

sudo apt-get install build-essential checkinstall
sudo apt-get install cvs subversion git-core mercurial

Then I didi this, not really sure what for

sudo chown $USER /usr/local/src
sudo chmod u+rwx /usr/local/src
Then
/usr/local/src# svn co https://qtractor.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/qtractor/trunk qtractor-svn
A long list loaded and in the end it outputed:
Obtained revision *translated by me*: 1636

/usr/local/src# make -f Makefile.svn
make: Makefile.svn: The file or directory does not exist
make: *** There's no rule to build the objective`Makefile.svn'. Stop.

So I tried:
/usr/local/src# cd qtractor-svn
root@matias-desktop:/usr/local/src/qtractor-svn# make -f Makefile.svn
make: autoheader: The program wasn't found
make: *** [configure] Error 127

So I failed. I'll keep looking I haven't got much time though. I'll get there eventually. BTW if the answer is RTFM I'll take it!

Thanks Rui
