Hugin 2010.2 on Ubuntu

Ubuntu users have to use an one-year-old version of Hugin (the one in the official repository), but if they have some time, they can uninstall it through building from sources.
On the Panotools wiki there's a step-by-step guide http://wiki.panotools.org/Hugin_Compiling_Ubuntu

Each program has similar steps:
-Make a folder in /home/[user]/src
-clone the mercurial repository (thus creating a folder [program].hg
-then create a folder [program].hg.build and launch building

-When choosing branches make sure to use the last one with only numbers (eg Hugin 2010.2)

One note: if occours this error while launching hugin
hugin: error while loading shared libraries: libhuginbase.so.0.0:
cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

execute this command in the Terminal
ldconfig -v
