Well the message is for Vince and everybody need it...I installed on Pi3 with
this:

apt-get install xinetd telnetd build-essential sudo git zlib1g-dev
git clone git://git.code.sf.net/p/mbsebbs/code mbsebbs-code
cd mbsebbs-code
chmod a+x SETUP.sh
./SETUP.sh
Answer prompts as required.
Give the mbse and your account sudo rights by editing /etc/sudoers with visudo.
Log out.
Log back in as the mbse user.
Check out code into mbse user's home directory: git clone
git://git.code.sf.net/p/mbsebbs/code mbsebbs-code
cd mbsebbs-code
sudo apt-get install zlib1g-dev (For Hydra/Binkp zlib compression)
sudo apt-get install libgeoip-dev (For GeoIP functions)
sudo apt-get install libbz2-dev (For Binkp bzlib compression)
./configure
make
su
To check the value of $MBSE_HOME before installation: echo $MBSE_HOME
If correct, run 'make install'.
cd /etc/xinetd.d
Open the file mbsebbs for editing.
Scroll down until you find the telnet section.
Set disable = no
Change /usr/sbin/telnetd to read /usr/sbin/in.telnetd
Save xinetd.d.
sudo service xinetd restart
ps-ef | grep xinetd
Results should be something like:
root@mbse:/etc/xinetd.d# ps -aux | grep xinetd
root 24925 1 0 22:08 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/xinetd -pidfile /run/x
root 24927 24379 0 22:08 pts/1 00:00:00 grep xinetd
telnet localhost
You should now get:
mbse@mbse:/etc/xinetd.d$ telnet localhost
Trying ::1...
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.

I left the project because had problems with the configuration, but
installation with the above procedure is a breeze...
