Description

Which way do you guys prefer to compile dolphin under Linux?

There is a wiki page[1] saying "use cmake" and there is a Devolper Guide site[2] saying "just run scons".

First of all there are dependencies missing at the wiki page.
Please add these to the apt-get install section:

libsoil-dev
libsfml-dev
liblzo2-dev
libbluetooth-dev

The CMakeLists.txt does not detect the libs above properly. Means: It does not stop if they are not installed.
The trunk version has also the bug that it does not detect gdk-pixbuf.h properly under Debian. Who reads the CMakeLists.txt knows why...

Second: If you prefer the scons way, substitute the cmake with a scons in the apt-get section.
Please also note that with Debian wheezy apt-get is considered deprecated and aptitude should be used by default [3].

I would suggest to update the wikipage with the dependencies above and replace cmake with scons (which worked fine for me) and replace the apt-get with aptitude.
