Hi,

there are pre-made grass7 packages for ubuntu already built, (albeit
a few weeks out of date)

https://launchpad.net/~grass/+archive/grass-devel
http://grasswiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Packaging


but I would always encourage users who wish to try development versions
of code to build GRASS from source themselves, it's not so bad; these
instructions should work:

https://trac.osgeo.org/grass/browser/grass/trunk/debian/README.debian
http://grasswiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Compile_and_Install_Ubuntu


regards,
Hamish
