Hello,
I am trying to understand ICAP and ECAP services for a project at work, and am 
finding that squid looks to be a good first step.

To that end, I want to learn how to install and configure squid3 on my home 
laptop, running Ubuntu 10.4.

1. download the source and untar it.
2. cd the source dir.
3. ./configure --help to check the options for compiling.
4. ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/squid ... (configure it with the
options you want)

These are the minimal set of options to integrate with Debian based OS including Ubuntu:
http://wiki.squid-cache.org/KnowledgeBase/Debian#Compiling

5. make && make install (compile and install it)
6. cd /usr/local/squid; sbin/squid -z; (init the cachedir, and look
for what happens)
7. sbin/squid (start the squid)

That's all IMO.

To use ecap you will also need to patch and build the libecap which is not provided yet. I'm working on packaging it unofficially, but it may take a while.
