If you're trying to build on Debian or Ubuntu, you want to run:
sudo apt-get install build-dep gnubg
to get all the dependencies installed. Then you can run:
apt-get source gnubg
to get the latest source from Ubuntu, go into the gnubg directory, go to
the debian subdirectory, and edit the rules file. Find this bit:
ifeq ($(DEB_HOST_ARCH_CPU),amd64)
SSE = --enable-simd=sse2
else
SSE = --enable-simd=no
endif
and change the flags in the amd64 branch. You should then be able to run
debian/rules build and it should do the rest.
