thanks Josh, hi list
it would be great if you would get it done for the upcomming 14.04 release!
If I find the time I'll try to rerun the compiling again and provide at least 
more detailed information of the stumble stones I find ;-)
As said, the PPA would be great for the next release cycle,
but IMO it would be ridiculous if libgfapi wouldn't make it into
the standard debian/ubuntu repository!
I appreciate a lot the simplicity (from the admin/op side)
that gluster offers.
best regards,
Bernhard
