how to compile and install vestige (vstige) vst plugin for lmms 0.4.12

UPDATE 20130205: How to install LMMS 0.4.14-rc1 with VST support on Ubuntu 12.04 (Precise Pangolin) (without having to compile anything!)


in ubuntu 11.10 i couldnt install lmms or lmms-vst because it was complaining about a wine dependency--wine1.2--even though wine1.3 was installed:

lmms : Depends: wine1.2 but it is not going to be installed 

E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages

so i had to compile and install lmms from the source code:
http://lmms.sourceforge.net/download.php

basically follow this guide: http://lmms.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/Compiling_LMMS

but here's exactly how i had to do it to get it to work, AND get the vestige vst-plugin (libvestige.so) to get installed (because it doesnt get installed by default):
when i tried cmake-ing the project the first time i got the following dependency errors:

CMake Error: The following variables are used in this project, but they are set to NOTFOUND.
Please set them or make sure they are set and tested correctly in the CMake files:
FREETYPE_LIBRARY (ADVANCED)
    linked by target "RemoteZynAddSubFx" in directory /home/nick/binl/lmms-0.4.12/plugins/zynaddsubfx
X11_Xft_LIB (ADVANCED)
    linked by target "RemoteZynAddSubFx" in directory /home/nick/binl/lmms-0.4.12/plugins/zynaddsubfx
X11_Xinerama_LIB (ADVANCED)
    linked by target "RemoteZynAddSubFx" in directory /home/nick/binl/lmms-0.4.12/plugins/zynaddsubfx
-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!

so i  had to install some things to make the errors go away:
sudo apt-get install libqt4-dev qt4-dev-tools build-essential libxft-dev libfreetype6-dev libxinerama1 libxinerama-dev

then i got the source code using github:
cd

git clone git://lmms.git.sf.net/gitroot/lmms/lmms
cd lmms
git checkout -b stable-0.4 origin/stable-0.4

then i created the vestige buildfiles (so it would get installed when we run cmake on the whole project):
cd plugins/vestige

cmake .

then i compiled and installed lmms:
cd ../..
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ../
make
sudo make install

now start lmms.
when you run it for the first time you'll need to do some configuration. i set the following:
audio settings > audio interface: ALSA
midi settings > midi interface: ALSA-Sequencer

here are a whole load of awesome, FREE, vst plugins, by DSK Instruments.

thanks to IRC user Gegsite for his help too =)
