It is always best to install the distributions version of these packages if possible. I'm not familiar with where the installer CD puts them, but it would have to be elsewhere than /usr/bin /usr/lib etc.. to avoid conflicts with ubuntu's package managed versions. > guile1.6-dev > libwxgtk2.8-dev > tcl8.4 > tcl8.4-dev > tk8.4 > tk8.4-dev > libgtk2.0-dev > libreadline5-dev > flex > bison > gperf > libjpeg62-dev > > I then re-ran the installer and geda/gaf seems to have installed ok. pcb, > ngspice, gnucap, icarus, and gspiceui are not installed correctly yet.

It "might" be that the installer is trying to install an old app which wants it - in which case, try: sudo apt-get install libgtk1.2-dev > For pcb, the error indicates that my gd installation does not include > support for jpeg. For other programs the message "error trying to exec > 'cc1plus': execvp: No such file or directory" seems to be a problem.

I have libgd2-xpm-dev installed: sudo apt-get install libgd2-xpm-dev with the cc1plus error, it looks like you might not have a C++ compiler installed. Try: sudo apt-get install g++ > Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks. Let us know how it goes. Ubuntu takes a little bit of apt-get install bootstrapping to become a usable development platform, however its pretty good once you've got the required packages.
