It is in the official Ubuntu repositories (gchempaint) but we use the PPA to provide newer versions where we can for stable Ubuntu releases. Ubuntu's update policy is fairly strict and doesn't...

For people wanting GChemPaint for Ubuntu 9.10, I've just uploaded it to the Debichem PPA. If you're running Ubuntu go to the Software Sources and add ppa:debichem/ppa in the third party tab. Reload...

For those of you wondering what happened to qgis in Ubuntu, I can hopefully shed some light. Essentially, Ubuntu removed it because Debian removed it. Now, that begs the question, why did Debian...

OK everybody, I spent some time with the Avogadro developers today trying to figure the "Export->Export Graphics" thing out. The short story is Avogadro relies on a OpenGL feature to export directly...

I think you should be able to use Gnomesword, Bibletime, and other SWORD based Bible programs for other books provided that you get them into the right format. I'd check out...

Regarding Edubuntu, there are really no resources (that is people) to work on software from scratch. There are only a handful (like 2-3) of people working on Edubuntu period so most focus has been on...

There are a few things to bear in mind.

Scilab 5 hasn't been out for very long
Debian is trying to finish a release (Lenny) and unlikely to include new upstream releases immediately
Ubuntu is...

Hi,
Sorry for dragging up an older thread, but I've got a few questions. I'm the guy that packages Avogadro for Debian and Ubuntu. Are you still having problems? What versions of Ubuntu, openbabel,...

The package texlive-latex-recommended now ships the files from latex-ucs so you might give that a try.

You might want to look at Step (http://edu.kde.org/step/index.php) which is a KDE (although you can run it in Gnome) physics simulator.

The boot time is odd. Generally Ubuntu (and by extension...

Since there seemed to be some interested I've created a new team in Launchpad specifically for Octave related packages:

Do you have any info on what specifically gromacs 3.3.3 would have over 3.3.2 which is what is scheduled to be released in Ubuntu 8.04? If we have a compelling reason we can file a Feature Freeze...

Hmm, I don't really understand. It looks like the instructions you're giving are for building from source, but if .debs are being downloaded that's not necessary. Also, you linked to the whole...

pdflatex also takes .pngs . I ran into this same problem when I started my dissertation and decided to go with pdflatex over latex.

Well, Octave 3.0 was released 2007-12-21, Debian had it 2007-12-23, and Ubuntu had it 2008-01-28 after some discussion around upgrade paths, etc. For a non-trivial package that has a fair amount of...

Just some comments on a few of these:
1. This can be done already from Synaptic and AptonCD. I do think probably these options could be advertised better though.
3. This gets tricky because themes...

You can use the addon CD. It should work just the same as for the Server CD.

I don't think it's the nearest server. But the server pool of that country. For instance us.archive.ubuntu.com is not one particular server but a pool of servers. If you check for the fastest...

I had similar problems but I found that it was because I previously had built 0.8.5 from the source tarball and that was interfering...

OK, so I'd like to throw in a few thoughts here on a few different aspects of this thread.

1) add alien support to Synaptic

This is a really a bad thing to do and would never be done in Debian...

I was going to wait until Debian had the fix published but I just went ahead and uploaded it anyway. It's currently waiting to be built on i386 (amd64 is done) and should be available shortly.

As said previously Octave 3.0 won't be in Gutsy. Right now we're trying to figure out what to do with Octave 3 for Hardy (8.04) because there are some upgrade issues and we need to work with Debian a...
