After installing version 3.3.3 as instructed, I get the following error:

$ gf
gf: error while loading shared libraries: libtinfo.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

When I re-install version 3.3 again, gf works fine.

My system is:

$ uname -a
Linux ubuntu 2.6.38-13-generic #53~lucid1-Ubuntu SMP Tue Nov 29 12:52:46 UTC 2011 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Currently I managed to run gf with  the following hacks:

cd /lib
 sudo ln -s libncurses.so.5 libtinfo.so.5

cd /usr/lib
sudo ln -s libgmp.so.3 libgmp.so.10
sudo ln -s libffi.so.5 libffi.so.6

I hope this helps others.
