There are two ways:
I recommend you second option as live repo has fixes and improvements, which snapshots may not have for a while (It can, however, contain unstable/unreliable code. I do my best to avoid it, but there's always a possibility).
To download live repository you'll need
git system control version.
you have to execute the following command:
git clone git://repo.or.cz/ncmpcpp.git
then enter downloaded folder:
cd ncmpcpp
and regenerate configure script and makefiles by typing:
./autogen.sh
if it succeeded without errors, now it's time to run:
./configure YOUR_CONFIGURE_OPTS (you can see them by typing ./configure --help)
make
make install
However, if you want to install it from tarball, download and unpack it:
tar pjvxf TARBALL_FILENAME
then enter unpacked directory and type:
./configure YOUR_CONFIGURE_OPTS
make
make install
congratulations, you have installed ncmpcpp :)
Tip: grab example config files from YOUR_CONFIGURE_PREFIX/share/doc/ncmpcpp (probably /usr/share/doc/ncmpcpp or /usr/local/share/doc/ncmpcpp) and customize ncmpcpp's configuration to suit your needs.
