Agreed.  :-)  ☺

On Ubuntu 6.06 (Debian-based, version code name “Dapper Drake”), I
merely needed to do this:

  apt-get build-dep glob2
  apt-get install scons libsdl-ttf2.0-dev libboost-thread-dev

This is using the dependencies of an older version of glob2 and then
merely adding 3 new dependencies.

Probably the dependencies on autoconf, etc. should now be dropped due
to the switch to scons.

Then in the unpacked glob2 directory, I ran this command.

  scons

That's all it took, so I imagine there is not much to change in
building the .deb file.

I hope this helps.
