Please open a terminal (e.g. by simultaneously pressing ctrl-alt-t) and issue the following three commands:

lsb_release -a
uname -a
find /etc/apt -name '*.list' -exec bash -c 'echo -e "\n$1\n"; cat -n "$1"' _ '{}' \;

then select all output, copy it and paste as new message into this question thread.
This should provide some details about your system and help identifying if and how we can help further.

In Ubuntu 11.10, run these commands:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:doko/toolchain

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install python3.3-dev

Then follow the instructions here:

http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:2.5/Doc/Building_Blender/Linux/Ubuntu/Scons

And if that does not work, then I suggest performing a clean install of Ubuntu 12.10, which definitely contains the missing package python3.3-dev.

It is advisable to install Ubuntu 12.10, because support for Ubuntu 11.10 will expire in a few months. Ubuntu 11.10 is end-of-life in April.

Please also execute the following command before starting the compilation procedure:

sudo apt-get install build-essential libncursesw5-dev libreadline5-dev libssl-dev libgdbm-dev libc6-dev libsqlite3-dev tk-dev

This is a prerequisite for building as described here:
