Dependency errors sound like you tried to install the newer package. Instead you should backport it -- download the source package and build it for your OS.
I'm still running hardy/8.04, and this means I backport a lot of packages. It's not quite as simple as apt, but it's usually pretty easy. Puppet, for example is 3 commands: git clone git://git.debian.org/pkg-puppet/Puppet.git cd puppet git-buildpackage --git-upstream-branch=origin/upstream -us -uc Have fun. seph hai wu <haiwu...@gmail.com> writes: > Dependency would not work, I chose to install another ubuntu 10.04 and will > try to migrate settings to the new server .. > > On Sat, May 8, 2010 at 5:26 PM, Ken <k...@bob.sh> wrote: > >> Have you tried back-porting the deb packages from a newer revision >> yet?
