In general you want to do major development on a dedicated system (one that you can wipe/reload if needed) due to the possibility of breaking core components of TDE. I'd recommend at least a dual-core machine with several GB of RAM as well.

Hope this helps some!

Hi, Tim already posted some very good instructions. I just add that after v14.0.0 is released, we are planning to add some building scripts to the TDE repository for Debian/Ubuntu to help anyone who wants to build their own packages to get started. Just keep in mind that TDE is huge and if you use the current sources it gets broken from time to time by changes in other packages provided by the distribution (especially on a rolling distribution like Jessie), so sometimes you will have to do some fix-up or wait for a fix-up to appear on the GIT sources.
Cheers Michele
Thanks to both for the information. I think I'll wait for the building scripts to try and see if I can manage that.
I do have a Core-i7 Machine around with 8 cores and 8GB memory doing little, soI thought I could make it a little busy...
