[collectd] Compiling 5.0 on Ubuntu 11.04

[Bill Harris]

That helped,some. it whined during the build.sh about
libgcrypt being missing, and aborted shortly..

Did have to install several of the build tools, lex,yacc,
libtool,etc..


I checked out master build.sh completed, so ran
./configure..   It seemed to almost run successfully,
then aborted with, guess what, a syntax error
unexpected token '1:1.2.0,,with _libgcrypt=no..

Hmm..  5.00 built so nicely on FreeBSD 8.2..

This is Ubuntu Server 11.04 (just released last week)
