There is a binary on their website :
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/mixxx/mixxx-1.5.0.1-linux.tar.bz2?downlo=
ad
have you tried it ?

./install.pl

and then you have two way to run it :

./mixxx or ./mixxx-with-jack

In the first case, I can run the soft, but when I select ALSA output, it
segfault. See in the manual :

"ALSA (Linux)
Support for the ALSA sound API is preliminary, and should be considered
ALPHA.
ALSA has to be enabled at compile time, hereafter, you have to make a
special device
that Mixxx can use. Take a look at the file README.ALSA supplied with
Mixxx."

In the second case I got :

"mixxx-with-jack: error while loading shared libraries: libjack-0.100.0.so.=
0:
cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"
I can't find libjack in repositories... is it an oversight ?

cheers,
