I'am trying the PPA that's been suggested earlier on a fresh new Ubuntu installation (thanks to QEmu/KVM). I am preferring it to the Debian repository as the PPA should be more Ubuntu-oriented. I am referring to http://ledgersmb.org/topic/installing-ledgersmb-15 for instructions. Also this one is requiring me to pull 294 packages in and installed version "1.4.33+ds-1~ubuntu16.04.1". I checked that both apache module for perl and cpanm were missing. So I added them. Then I have checked the Perl "core" modules and found that libjson-perl, libpgobject-util-dbmethod-perl and libmoosex-nonmoose-perl were missing. All packages needed for PDF output were already in place as well as the "Stand-alone Perl server". I also added the extra (?) "OpenOffice output document" stuff. I think that those missing bits should be pulled in as dependencies and not installed manually. In my opinion. I then went to the CPAN modules section. For cpanm to work the "build-essential" package needs to be pulled in, so I added it. The suggested command says: "cpanm --quiet --notest --installdeps ." but there is no detail about that "." which should be the place where the dependencies should be checked from. I have tried the installation path (/usr/share/ledgersmb) but it's still failing with the same error: ######## cpanm (App::cpanminus) 1.7040 on perl 5.022001 built for x86_64-linux-gnu-thread-multi Work directory is /home/support/.cpanm/work/1477739810.9419 You have make /usr/bin/make You have LWP 6.15 You have /bin/tar: tar (GNU tar) 1.28 Copyright (C) 2014 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

I have also walked the "debian path" but in the end I reach this same end point. Any hint on how to fix this stale situation?
