Hey,
i successfully compiled maxima 5.14 and wxmaxima 0.7.4 on ubuntu. i
downloaded the tarball, i installed all the required packages with apt-get
build-dep, i compiled the source code and then generated a deb with
checkinstall. then i installed the deb package and uninstalled what
apt-get build-dep installed.
here there is a tutorial:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/wxMaxima
i remember getting some errors while running make, but i fixed them simply
installing what it was asking for (and then uninstalling when done).
hope this helps
