[Box Backup-dev] Compile BoxBackup under Debian Woody failed

[E.W. Peter Jalajas]

I don't know anything about this, except it finally worked for me on my
Ubuntu debian boxes after I installed the kitchen sink.  Sorry, I don't
know the mapping between Debian and Ubuntu release names.  

I think the dev libraries were important, but I'm not sure.  I would
guess that I installed the latest 4.x versions first and then had to
install the earlier ones later to make it work, but again, I'm not
sure.

Here's what I have on my Ubuntu Breezy box backup 0.10 client:

petjal@brio:~ $ sudo grep -i ubuntu /etc/*
/etc/issue:Ubuntu 5.10 "Breezy Badger" \n \l
/etc/issue.net:Ubuntu 5.10 "Breezy Badger" %h
/etc/lsb-release:DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu
/etc/lsb-release:DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu (The Breezy Badger
Release)"
