With the whole NSA thing people tried to re-build identically looking binaries to the ones which truecrypt.org provides, but didn't succeed. So some think they might be compiled with back-doors which are not in the source code. -> So how compile on the latest Ubuntu version (I'm using UbuntuGNOME but that shouldn't matter)? I tried some tutorials for previous Ubuntu versions but they seem not to work any-more?

Now you might think "ok, we don't need to build", but: To build he used closed-source software and there are proof-of-concepts where a compromised compiler still put backdoors into the binary:
1. source without backdoors
2. binary identically to the reference-binary
3. binary contains still backdoors

Now it works, thanks user76204 and GEO:
$ sudo apt-get install build-essential nasm libfuse-dev wx-common wx2.8-headers libwxbase2.8-dev libwxsvg-dev libwxgtk2.8-0 libwxgtk2.8-dev$ mkdir -p $HOME/src/pkcs-11- put truecrypt sources to
/home/USERNAME/truecrypt-7.1a-source - start building:
$ LIBS=-ldl make -j 2 PKCS11_INC=/home/USERNAME/src/pkcs-11/
