OK, not certain what your problem was with building. I'll freely admit that I'm a Gentoo expat, so I almost certainly didn't do this The Ubuntu Way... but it built fine on my system.
I used the source files available here: http://packages.debian.org/testing/source/bonfire After installing all the build requirement packages listed on that page, as well as 'beagle-dev' I just went for it with a './configure' and a 'make' followed by 'make install'. Worked like a charm. Obviously, my way doesn't meet Ubuntu Standards, but hopefully this will help somebody. :-) I'm attaching the configure and make output for your convenience. -- Add bonfire https://launchpad.net/bugs/57199 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
