Hi Elie, Ubuntu builds tend to be more finicky, so I'm not surprised you're reporting a problem. But I'm not entirely clear on what's wrong simply from the build errors in your message. For example, if libxslt.a is missing, you should see a number of errors (dozens to hundreds) in your make.out file. Same with gn.a and libpng.a. Can you attach the make.out logfile back in an email to me so I can take a look?
