Thanks Brecht - those are the instructions I followed this morning 
(although I haven't reached the stage of running CMake yet).

I'm curious about the 3rd-party dependencies.  It looks like some are 
needed (boost / sndfile / vorbis / tiff etc) although they're not listed 
in the section that's called "Install the dependencies". Are they 
expected to be already present on the build system?  Or does CMake go 
away and fetch them somehow?  I'm only asking because I haven't been 
able to find a list of library dependencies anywhere...
