Hello all, I have now managed to sort out some packages that enable ubuntu lucid users to compile the manual. This is only expected to work in lucid.
Anyone who is not running lucid should continue to follow the instructions at the end of this page: http://ubuntu-manual.org/getinvolved/authors I have tested it myself but would appreciate it if some people could also test it. You can install the packages by going Applications > Accessories > Terminal . Then type the following commands sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-manual/ubuntu-manual sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install ubuntu-manual-tex Then you can try and build the manual by changing to the branch directory and running "make" . If you are trying to build a translated pdf you can run "make ubuntu-manual-LANG.pdf" where LANG is the language code (see the po/ directory for a list of supported languages). If you have problems please contact me either on the list, or on irc. I am ubuntujenkins on #ubuntu-manual I am usually around utc day time, if you get no response I may not be there. However I will get back to you as soon as I am back/available.
