I downloaded the gnofract4d tar file from SourceForge, and started trying to install it.  An hour later, after I used Synaptic to  install g++-3.4,   gtk2-engines-dev, and python2.4-dev and their dependencies, gnofract4d was running on my system.

There were a lot of improvments since the last time I had used it under Fedora Core six months ago.  It also seems a lot more stable.
