[Bruno Chareyre <1250928@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

So. I tried a fresh 12.04 in chroot. Followed the documentation strictly to install prerequisites, then compiled. Without the ppa and without metis.
I am a bit disappointed: nothing happens. Compiled normally, and runs the fluid-coupling example script without problems (just extremely slow, as expected without metis).
So what people do to get in troubles is still not clear. Could it be that some of the libs in the ppa are the source of problems? It would be surprising.

I actually got problems when I forgot to replace qgl by qgl-qt4. This is the only critical point, and it is explained in the doc.
I'm closing the bug. Re-open with detailed explanations if you still have problems.

Title:
  Compilation from source probably miss some documentation

Status in Yet Another Dynamic Engine:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  
  It seems the instructions for installing prerequisites [1] will fail on ubuntu 12.04 if yade-users ppa is not enabled first.
  Trying to compile anyway leads to a few cmake warnings but it will let one build. Then boot failure because of missing lib (didn't do the build myself, I've seen the result on a colleagues computer).

  The bug is that the ppa is not mentionned anywhere on the installation page.
  If anyone confirm I can update the doc, though I'm not sure if this situation is for 12.04 only, or if the ppa should be considered mandatory for all platforms.
