What I have done when I needed something that wasn't available is to compile and do the install with checkinstall. It builds a deb, and installs it in /usr/local/bin . It's NOT a Debian-approved deb, but does fine for strictly local installations and can be removed with dpkg if needed. Checkinstall is available in the repository for your flavour of Debian. - -- Frank -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (GNU/Linux) iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJLeIiqAAoJEMEDyLTvrVhjmfsH/AmH4LxhtiAIRjVh1+riO3iF edJFYTT3PifXKXk9huoTQEQRkxrRFV1HnF2FA+zR3esuRA9O9IOU22nPd2v3sYZR vklCKFa1hU1dA8hi/I27Kcdz2Sur7CzLYID/iGJXtHcmpihKCFSORbfHhCIzRuWy sL67jzOwbLK0euL7wZsJc9F7VwaDIZaW5pZTwVei4GiW1YXyoupG+EMMUuCeE12z B2ClzDchYbCFIpLYnz+jShfulZMDhp4gPFIXNUXQGzqAj3u5envIe2iyWZPzf0Os wq8rL32zgsegCw9MyN7A5gTPfcKgh0HBMVL5/yKj6xgQ8mVnV0Wx858ai800uPw= =E7vq -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
