Error with minetest ubuntu 10.04

I've downloaded the latest .deb
and when I try to install it, it gives me the following error:
(Reading database ... 34822 files and directories currently installed.)

You miss some dependencies: libc6, libjpeg8, libopenal1, libstdc++6

I recognize libjpeg8 and libopenal, don't know if the other 2 are necessary for the package you used (Or if they are already installed on my computer).

You could try to install them (for me (on Lubuntu) it would be: sudo apt-get install libc6 libjpeg8 libopenal1 libstdc++6 ).

But why don't you compile minetest yourself? How on Linux --> https://github.com/minetest/minetest (Scroll down to Compiling on GNU/Linux: ). Copy and paste the lines in your terminal).

Attention points:
- You need to put sudo before the apt get line
- cd minetest-minetest-286edd4 (or similar) --> change it to the new minetest name that just appeared in your home directory.
- If you want to have build and survival too, you need also to copy/paste this:

cd games/
wget https://github.com/minetest/build/tarball/master -O build.tar.gz
tar xf build.tar.gz
mv minetest-build-* build
cd ..

cd games/
wget https://github.com/minetest/survival/tarball/master -O survival.tar.gz
tar xf survival.tar.gz
mv minetest-survival-* survival
cd ..

There's an issue with the .deb packages lately anyway, don't use them. Until that's fixed, compiling it yourself is better.
