A number of us use Ubuntu daily - not sure if anyone is using the KDE specific version. I myself use and do test builds daily on Ubuntu.

Any KDE specific info you provide is very welcome.

OK, will do. I don't expect anything special, but you never know.

BTW, is it just me or does anyone else think that Building Chandler notes are a bit too terse? I don't think I normally need to have my hand held all the way just to run make -- it's more that the page feels not so much like a standard INSTALL file, but reading notes written to oneself by somebody who already knows Chandler well. The section "some notes about external and internal" is a good example of what I mean.

More importantly, the "BuildingChandler" page mentions the option of running "make world" with "DEBUG=1", but there isn't a word about what that might mean until the next section, "top makefile targets" (even though it's not a target), where it says "Use DEBUG=1 for debug versions". But remembering discussion on this list about a month ago, I had the impression that running the debug version is discouraged, because it's so slow. This should really be stated clearly, because I think someone who wants to work on a project would be more likely to think a debug version is necessary for the development.

Also, "how to run" information is duplicated on "BuildingChandler" and "RunningChandlerFromSourceReleases" pages. I think only the former is necessary, since you have to build Chandler in order to run "from source", no?
