Hey, this gets a result now ... For real? I get "You have searched for packages that names contain publican in all suites, all sections, and all architectures." "Sorry, your search gave no results" What did you get? You have searched for packages that names contain publican in all suites, all sections, and all architectures. Found 1 matching packages.

So for "apt-get install" to work on a current Debian or Ubuntu system, the right repos need to be enabled. I've updated the Users Guide to tell people how to do this (and how and why to disable these repos again when they're done installing!) Ubuntu instructions here: http://rlandmann.fedorapeople.org/pug/chap-Users_Guide-Installing_Publican.html#sect-Users_Guide-Installing_Publican_on_Linux_operating_systems-Installing_Publican_on_Ubuntu Debian instructions here: http://rlandmann.fedorapeople.org/pug/chap-Users_Guide-Installing_Publican.html#sect-Users_Guide-Installing_Publican_on_Linux_operating_systems-Installing_Publican_on_Debian I don't know why Ubuntu couldn't install Publican without installing Fop first; but installing Fop separately did then allow me to install Publican successfully (on Kubuntu 9.10). publican-1.3-0.fc12 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 12. http://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/publican-1.3-0.fc12 publican-1.3-0.fc11 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 11. http://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/publican-1.3-0.fc11 publican-1.3-0.fc12 has been pushed to the Fedora 12 stable repository.
