Scott,
on that subject, I noticed that in ubuntu the SCM tag is empty,
this should (if I did my job right) show the GIT tag
in the form of: SCM Revision: 1.0.0rc1-119-ga41a27e
Can that get included in the ubuntu PPA?

There's a PPA set up that will build a new package everytime something
is committed to the github repo. Installation instructions are at
librecad.org.
The packages have version numbers like:
1.0.0~rc1+yeslib201107031942-0ubuntu0~daily3~oneiric1
1.0.0~rc1 = the most recent release that the version is based on
+yeslib = libraries are embedded
201107031942 = date and time of the build (19:42 UTC on July 3, 2011)
-0ubuntu0 = this has not been released in ubuntu
~daily3 = this is the third revision of the daily build packaging scripts
~oneiric1 = this is an oneiric system (and the first build for that
system for this date)
The official Ubuntu and Debian packages have version numbers like this:
1.0.0~rc1+nolibs-3
1.0.0~rc1 = release version
+nolibs = no embedded libraries
-3 = third revision of debian packaging scripts
