Hi,

I'm trying to compile fluxus on ubuntu "10.04 LTS - the Lucid Lynx". I 
don't know Linux at all and I have absolutely no idea of what I'm doing :D

I've downloaded the source code using git:
|git clone git://git.savannah.nongnu.org/fluxus.git|

I've downloaded Racket (source code) from their site. I'veconfigured 
Racket with:
|./configure --prefix=/usr/local/racket --enable-shared|

then tried a few things *ahem* to compile & install, the last attemps being:
|make both
sudo make install-both-common
|
To compile fluxus, I had to define *RacketPrefix*, else scons couldn't 
fond racket3m:
|scons RacketPrefix=/usr/local/racket|

Everything goes fine until raco is called to generate base.c:
|scons: Reading SConscript files ...
sh: racket: not found

I'm stuck there :/
Could any Ubuntu wizard give me some help?
Thank you!
