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.
