netatalk on Ubuntu Server 14.04 LTS

Did an installation of netatalk (AFP server in Linux) to support the macs at home. Wanted to setup network time machine for Pauline's computers so that she has a backup of stuff. I followed the instructions at: http://netatalk.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/Install_Netatalk_3.1.7_on_Ubuntu_14.10_Utopic And that seems to work well on a testing VM. The article is well written except for the fact that the required packages are not in a form which is easy to copy and paste. So here is the list of packages on my system.

build-essential libevent-dev libssl-dev libgcrypt11-dev libkrb5-dev libpam0g-dev libwrap0-dev libdb-dev libtdb-dev libmysqlclient-dev libavahi-client-dev libacl1-dev libldap2-dev libcrack2-dev systemtap-sdt-dev libdbus-1-dev libdbus-glib-1-dev libglib2.0-dev tracker libtracker-sparql-0.16-dev libtracker-miner-0.16-dev
