On my testing machine, I have most of the dependencies installed from 
binary packages. I always try to avoid compilations other than the Trinity 
ports. I intend to prepare a readme with basic instructions. There I want 
to mention the packages that should be installed before building Trinity 
ports. However, it needs some time...
