have a look to the current Changelog_20060216.txt (most recent changes at end of file)
Same as for all automake'd software packages:
tar -zxvf libsvmtl-20060216.tar.gz cd libsvmtl-20060216 ./configure (or ./configure --prefix /your/install/path) make (wait a long time, depending on your computer) make check (if you want to make sure, that library compiled correct) make install
