Make sure you have the package build-essential installed. Then you will have to download the source code of the respective projects. Then, hopefully, there will be a configure script, and you can run


./configure
make
sudo make install (or sudo checkinstall)



The configure script will produce the Makefile, unless there are any errors, and then you type make to build and make install to install. checkinstall will produce a .deb package for you, which can make uninstalling easier. Any errors will probable be from missing headers and libraries, which you can search packages.ubuntu.com for the correct package to install. Usually they are *-dev packages.

If there is no configure script, then there might just be a makefile.

If you have any specific difficulties, just post your problems here.
