The PPA doesn't work. The compilation instructions fail.

Compilation works for me: https://asciinema.org/a/LkPYDdWkGgFybny8ChqOLQA8e

What problems are you encountering? It might be worth opening a GitHub issue.

It is not clear from the error that you were missing libsodium. I don't remember what was my error anyway, I'll try again later. But I can't even find libsodium on my apt.

Agreed, it wasn't terribly clear. I essentially just guessed based on the mention of "sodium_LIBRARY_RELEASE". What OS are you running?

Hey, please file an issue on github: https://github.com/MisterTea/EternalTCP/issues

You may be running a distro that doesn't have libsodium (such as ubuntu 14). In this case you have to grab libsodium manually and build et from source.
