Sammy, don't hesitate asking basic questions (as long as they're not answered directly on the web site :D ).

The typical system-wide directory is /usr/local on Linux, but we recommend you don't do that but rather install into a user-writable dir, such as ~/target. If unsure, you can use the default. > - cmake debug flags to use If unsure, use the default. > - how to try to satisfy dependencies (typically "rpm,src" for > fedora/centos/RHEL and "deb,src" for debian/ubuntu or just "src" to > ignore the system package manager) If a package is missing, where do we get it from? Say we're missing Boost, we need to install it before we can proceed. pybombs can use the package manager of your system, or compile from src. deb,src is a good setting for Debian/Ubuntu, because it tries to use the standard package installer if possible, but can always fall back on to the source build, which should always work. If unsure, leave the default. Hope this helps.
