I'm not exactly sure about the error's if you look on the page were you 
downloaded the packages you should notice that I uploaded some new ones today.
If you can get the one that says static in it, you should not need any of the 
other ones. This one has most of the shared libraries compiled into it so 
that it does not require them. Try to make this one iinto a deb and let me 
now how it goes. 

Your errors are most likely due the fact that your system is a little 
different than mine. The static build should take care of this.

Post any problems or errors here and i'll do my best to help.
