I'm hoping someone can help me with the installation of a recent snapshot.
In general, koha-devel@nongnu.org may be a better list to ask, so we don't bore all the users with development questions.
I got the snapshot for "Correcting installlation instructions" (Koha-1ad9d8b945ebda4130f07d4abbc313f8...tar.gz) this morning from http://git.koha.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=Koha;a=summary. [...] What is step #4 above (ln -s /usr/lib/perl5/site-perl/*/koha/etc/koha-httpd..conf /etc/apache2/sites-available/koha) designed to do?
Symlink the koha-httpd.conf into /etc/apache2/sites-available, as you correctly guessed. That line had a ytpo in it and I failed to update the README.txt to match the latest changes to the installer, so I've just patched it. Installer prepatches appear at http://serene.ttllp.co.uk/~mjr/koha-installer/ if you want to try them before the QA manager and Release Manager review them.

That's a mistake: you need the installed copy of koha-httpd.conf, which doesn't contain __KEYWORD__ tags.

That's the sort of error you'll get using the source copy instead of the installed one.
