It's not really an answer to your questions, but if you tried to
compile ardour by yourself only because the version in Ubuntu 15.10 is
very (better: too) old, you can also use my backport of the
Debian-testing packages of ardour 4.6 for Debian-jessie/stable, which
should also work on Ubuntu 15.10. You can find them at:
