Hi Alex, thanks for quick response!

I seem to have  different dirrectory structure, namely 

henri@HLaurie:~$ cd .julia/v0.3/
henri@HLaurie:~/.julia/v0.3$ ls
BinDeps  Compat  FixedPointNumbers  LaTeXStrings  PyCall  REQUIRE  Sundials
Color    Dates   Graphics           METADATA      PyPlot  SHA      URIParser

and if i search for sundials-2.5.0 I find a directory under 
Sundials/deps/src: 

ls Sundials/deps/src/sundials-2.5.0/
acinclude.m4    config      config.log     configure.ac  include        
LICENSE      README
bin             config.h    config.status  doc           INSTALL_NOTES  
Makefile     src
CMakeLists.txt  config.hin  configure      examples      libtool        
Makefile.in  sundialsTB

which has a Makefile and config library and a configure input file, maybe 
try to run make there?
