There was an error: we recently switched our git servers from gitorious 
to gitlab and the link to the ds485-stack libraries was still pointing 
to the old server. This is fixed now.
As for the rest of the instructions: I just ran through them and they 
worked.

I don't see why this shouldn't work. You would have to "Enable support 
for additional digitalSTROM-Server" in System > System Settings on your 
dSS11-1GB.

The build is not seeing the required headers from the ds485-steck 
libraries. Have you installed ds485-core, libdsuid, ds485-netlib, 
ds485-client, dsm-api according to the instructions?

Some boost headers seem to be missing. That's strange because configure 
actually checks for this header.
