Hello!

I have 2 questions about EMC2, I hope that somebody can point me into
some useful direction.
1) Is there a way to update from 2.4.0 to 2.4.1 on Lucid?

2) I have been trying to compile EMC2 on Lucid without any success.

What I did:
Acquired EMC2 source by executing:
git clone git://git.linuxcnc.org/git/emc2.git emc2-dev

VERSION file says that I have got source of EMC 2.5~pre.

Then I opened README file and tried to follow instructions:
cd /home/waterjet/emc2-dev/src
./configure --enable-run-in-place

And for last command I get:
bash: ./configure: No such file or directory

Andy suggested this command to get additional packages installed:
sudo apt-get install build-essential fakeroot debhelper libpth-dev
libgtk2.0-dev kernel-wedge tcl8.4-dev tk8.4-dev bwidget python2.5-dev
python-tk python-dev libglu1-mesa-dev libgtk2.0-dev
libgnomeprintui2.2-dev libncurses5-dev libxaw7-dev gettext
libreadline5-dev lyx texlive-extra-utils imagemagick tetex-bin
tetex-extra groff qt3-dev-tools
sudo apt-get install build-essential fakeroot debhelper libpth-dev
libgtk2.0-dev kernel-wedge tcl8.4-dev tk8.4-dev bwidget python2.5-dev
python-tk python-dev libglu1-mesa-dev libgtk2.0-dev
libgnomeprintui2.2-dev libncurses5-dev libxaw7-dev gettext
libreadline5-dev lyx texlive-extra-utils imagemagick tetex-bin
tetex-extra groff qt3-dev-toolssudo apt-get install build-essential
fakeroot debhelper libpth-dev
libgtk2.0-dev kernel-wedge tcl8.4-dev tk8.4-dev bwidget python2.5-dev
python-tk python-dev libglu1-mesa-dev libgtk2.0-dev
libgnomeprintui2.2-dev libncurses5-dev libxaw7-dev gettext
libreadline5-dev lyx texlive-extra-utils imagemagick tetex-bin
tetex-extra groff qt3-dev-tools

For several packages I got answer that they do not exist: I remember
lyx, tetex-extra.
For several packages I got answer that I should choose another one,
which is equivalent, for example instead of python2.5-dev I should
install python-old-doctools, but there were few more.

What am I missing here? I suspect that it is some very basic mistake,
as I do not yet have any experience with compiling and building
applications in Linux.

with best regards,
Viesturs
