Here is my personal cheat sheet:

# install all the packages which were necessary to build the Debian package 
# of geda and pcb
apt-get build-dep geda
apt-get build-dep pcb

# get the source
git clone git://git.geda-project.org/geda-gaf.git
git clone git://git.geda-project.org/pcb.git

# build geda
cd geda-gaf
make clean
./autogen.sh
./configure 
make -j4
sudo make install

ldconfig  # libtoolize should take care of this but apparently doesn't   
cd ..


# build pcb
cd pcb 
make clean

# Apply a patch to prevent insta-exit on certain actions when called
# from within an action-script. I need this for my print script.
patch -p1 < hidnogui-actionscript.patch

./autogen.sh
./configure
make -j4
make install 

# remove the default footprint libraries. In case of name conflicts gedalib 
# silently selects the footprint from the default lib. This is most certainly 
# not what I want.
rm -rf /usr/local/share/pcb/newlib
rm -rf /usr/local/share/pcb/pcblib-newlib
rm -rf /usr/local/share/pcb/m4
rm -rf /usr/local/share/pcb/pcblib
rm -rf /usr/local/share/pcb/pcblib.contents;


# The resulting binaries will be installed in /usr/local/bin
# They do not interfere with the version installed by the official Debian
# package.


 Hope, this helps.
