The easiest way to help with testing is to spin up some Ubuntu LTS VMs and add the PPA[1]. The PPA contains rc releases. That said, wait, maybe till tomorrow, there will be rc2s for utils (no functional changes, just some additional stuff I would like to get in like drbdmon updated, Japanese man-pages,...), but also a rc2 for drbd9 which will be important. PS: If you really want to build from source, use the tarballs and the usual ./configure && make && sudo make install for userspace and for kernel space install the headers and make && sudo make install. If you use git, we expect you to know what you do. We don't document the build in the users-guide anymore, because for tarballs it is obvious, for git users (== developers) we expect them to know what they do, and packaging is too horrible to maintain (it is slightly different for every distribution, even differs for minor releases, especially looking at the *beep* rpm based distris that can be so broken that we need to patch their broken macros some times). No fun to maintain that in the users-guide and providing packages is part of LINBIT's business anyways.
