compile hugin

[Brian Cluff]

Why don't you just install the packages from the package repositories?

Even if you only have the older 2014.0.0 version available, there really 
isn't much difference between the current version and the older one. 
Certainly there are no features that someone new to the program would 
possible miss, and all this attempts at compiling is keeping you from 
getting your task at hand done.
You're more likely to end up with a binary that is missing features or 
stitches images horrendously slow.... hugin can easily eat your 
computer.  Hugin and Blender are the 2 major programs on my system that 
caused me to purchase the monster of a computer that I have.  It's quite 
easy to create panoramic images that require the system to have to 
process a several hundred Megapixel image.  Doing that can take quite a 
long time to finish... sometimes hours or days depending on the 
computer.  Having an improperly compiled hugin could easily make that 
wait 10 times longer.
