I grabbed the latest from the source repository, following the instructions here: http://code.google.com/p/heekscad/wiki/BuildWithCmakeOnUbuntu At the bottom of that link there is a script that does it all.

Maybe I can do put together something along those lines as I learn. No promises. I'll try to keep a list of difficulties I've come across so that I can organise my thoughts later.

Oh well :) We've hijacked Igor's original post, so we should probably create a new thread, take this off-line or move it over to the heekscad list. Regards, Andy
