Install Vulture’s in Ubuntu
Preparing your system
First you need to install the following dependencies
sudo apt-get install byacc flex libsdl1.2-dev libsdl-image1.2-dev libsdl-mixer1.2-dev libsdl-ttf2.0-dev
Now you need to download the latest version of Vulture’s from here using the following command in /usr/local/
wget http://www.darkarts.co.za/projects/vultures/attachment/wiki/downloads/2.1.0/vultures-2.1.0-full_unix-1.bin.sh
Now you need to make the script executable using the following command
chmod +x vultures-2.1.0-full_unix-1.bin.sh
Now you need to execute the script using the following command
./vultures-2.1.0-full_unix-1.bin.sh
A few compilation warnings later, the game is installed in the vulture directory in your home’s. You can play either Vulture’s Eye or Claw.

This is all well and good if you like filling up up your home directory with executables (other than the ones you are building in your source directories). What if you want to do things *CORRECTLY* and put executables in system locations?

For Ubuntu 8.10 the instructions on here mostly worked, the only thing that was missing is ‘bison’ on the apt-get info
I downloaded the SH file to a temp directory and ran it from there so putting stuff in /usr/local is not needed.
