As I already wrote a few days ago, I also found it a challenge to
compile Etoile. Among other things, I got one error that I could only
resolve by finding a post on the Etoile list (after googling) and
applying a patch by hand. In the end I got stuck on openssl. I will do
another attempt this week, starting from scratch and I will note down
every step I take so that hopefully other people who start from a
clean Ubuntu system will be able to duplicate them (if I succeed). A
couple of questions:

* It seemed to me that the make script in the virtual box image was
much more forgiving than the one in the svn trunk. I didn't go through
the log thoroughly, but thought I saw errors fly by that halted the
compilation when I ran it on a booted Linux system. Is this possible,
and if so, what flags/env variables do I need to set to make the
compiler skip warnings?

* Would you recommend building and installing *all* dependencies
myself rather than using apt-get?
