Want to compile 2.0.0rc1 in a Debian based distro

TheOneWhoAsksLotsOfQuestions
I'd like to have a shot at compiling 2.0.0rc1 in my SolydK64bit.  
Is there a tar/zip file I can download?  

Looking at http://librecad.org/cms/home/from-source/linux.html
there's a link labelled “Download LibreCAD source in a single file”  
which takes me to https://github.com/LibreCAD/LibreCAD/downloads

I don't see the file.  
How do I get it?  
Is the link OK?

github has recently changed.

Go to https://github.com/LibreCAD/LibreCAD and click in "Download ZIP" button in the right

Downloaded the .zip, thanks.  

Followed instructions in readme.  Compiling took about half hour on my slightly dated 3GHz dual core.  

At the end, the following messages were displayed...

Project MESSAGE: Using boost libraries in .
Project MESSAGE: muParser was not found, please install muParser!
Project MESSAGE: Using muParser libraries in .
Project MESSAGE: We will be using CPP11 features
Project MESSAGE: ttf2lff using libraries in .

When I check my system I see that
libmuparser-dev  ver2.2.3-2
and
libmuparser2  ver2.2.3-2
are actually installed.  
I have no idea what the significance of this is may be.  Perhaps it won't matter?  

Anyway it looks like I have a working install of LibreCAD2.0,0rc1 to play with.  
Looks nice so far, I'll check it out more thoroughly soon.

did you try?

sudo apt-get build-dep librecad

make sure you have deb-src lines in your sources.list

dxli,

Thanks for pointing that out.  
I didn't have the deb-src lines in my sources.list so I put them in and started over.  

Still getting the same messages as before.  It's been pointed out to me that the same question was asked back in January.  

http://forum.librecad.org/muparser-and-boost-libraries-not-found-td5707528.html

Unless someone says otherwise, I'll assume it compiled OK and the messages are not important.

It's now October and that link is still incorrect.  Perhaps it should just be removed?

On a more positive note, Release Candidate 2 compiled on my SolydK 64bit without errors.
