I think a better (=faster) way to do this is to join some existing Linux 
tracker project and start contributing. I'm a huge FT2 fan myself 
(I used it extensively when recording my first demo-CD!), but I don't
really need it anymore. I'm quite happy with Michael Krause's 
SoundTracker (for Linux, of course). It's not perfect, but it's
open-source! If you need some feature or something isn't working, you
can add/fix it yourself.

If you're interested, go to http://www.soundtracker.org/
