I updated the wiki "apt-get install" list with libtext-glob-perl and
libossp-uuid-perl, but if you're able to check exactly what other
modules are needed and figure out their debian package names that would
be really nice.  (Note: how I confirmed libossp-uuid-perl really
contained Data:UUID was running "dpkg -L libossp-uuid-perl" and noting
it provides  /usr/lib/perl5/Data/UUID.pm.)

sudo is of course required for apt-get but for any of the other build
steps it shouldn't be necessary.  Maybe if you initially did "sudo svn
checkout..." it would explain; then the files would be owned by root and
all subsequent make commands would require sudo.

I guess wubi slows things down since writes eventually go through two OS
layers.  I did my last conversion on a native (EXT3) install and it was
all really fast. (But if you're *really* interested in performance,
using a ramdisk is best :)
