Hi folks,
I encountered this problem too. Since no one seems to be commenting on
it, I wrote up a patch. It's probably not the ideal solution, but it works
fine.
To apply the patch, download the xutils source package with apt-get :
apt-get source xutils
(Note that you need to have the proper deb-src entries in your sources.list
for this to work. You needn't be root.) This will create (among other
things) a directory called xutils-7.0.0. Copy the patch below into its
own file (omitting the PATCH STARTS HERE and PATCH ENDS HERE lines) and cd
to xutils-7.0.0/debian. Apply the patch with
patch -p1 < name-of-patch-file
(Where name-of-patch-file should be replaced with whatever you saved the
patch as.)
Then build the package:
cd .. && dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -uc -us
This will create a deb package in the same directory that the xutils-7.0.0
resides in, presuming you have all the necessary tools on your system to
build packages. The exact name will vary with your architecture, but it'll
be something like xutils_7.0.0-3_i386.deb. Install it:
dpkg -i xutils_7.0.0-3_i386.deb
(as root, or using sudo, or whatever.) Voila!
Cheers,
Alexander
