Well I did experiment with a 64 bit based on Raring Ringtail (13:04), but  
had random make doc failures. So I gave up on it - that was a few months  
ago - David's experience with 13:10 recently also didn't fill me with much  
hope.

So I have started again with 12:04 LTS (32bit as it seems to just work),  
the CG pretty much covers everything but you do need to manually download  
and make a more recent version of Fontforge (no big deal) and ditto Astyle.

Git seems to be 1.7.9.5 in the repository (I also install gitk which makes  
my life easier frankly). But I could I guess download and make a later  
version of git but I don't know if it is worth it for the sake of the  
tedium of maintaining downloaded packages than ones in the repo.

The only annoyance is that with remastersys (the tool I use to make the  
ISOs) is that it is impossible to get the iso file much below 1.5GB. At  
least with a default install of ubuntu - even with the other Ubuntu  
flavours there is little in it.

Phil said that was OK to Host, but there comes a point where I guess the  
size of the download is such that it might be easier to simply download and  
follow the CG yourself to make your own build machine. I don't know how  
convenient LilyDev is - I know I use it all the time but I am still using  
the 10:04 one for Patchy and that is ticking along nicely.

Still I'll run with this 12:04 cut for a few more days and make sure I have  
the kinks ironed out.
