I'm not the person to answer. My experience Gutsy use Gutsy, Hasty use Hasty. Else you end up cleaning the disk win problem fixing style. I suspect that these are a Ubuntu version of deb files and are not to be confused with exe or bin stuff. They have dependencies and can be super frustrating. Go to http://www.geda.seul.org/ bottom of page click PCB and bottom of that page is PCB home page click that then downloads in box on left wow nearly there find pcb-20080202.tar.gz suck it into your machine. Now what? How to install anything if stuck. http://www.monkeyblog.org/ubuntu/installing/#installing_with_synaptic
There is a set of instructions somewhere specially for installing pcb. Maybe they are in the tarball, sniff in the unpacked tarball stuff. Using this method is good for any platform. PC, Mac, 32 or 64 bit etc. Make a directory and stuff what you downloaded into it. Click on it and the Ubuntu magic will make a directory tree and stuff it with the tarball stuff. Now for the non windows stuff. Applications/accessories/terminal (dos glass typewriter) cd to the magic directory and type. ./configure ;then make ;then sudo make install I think that's what I did. You may have to pull in a few extra libs and packages but I think most of what you need is there or use the apt-get or package manager to get it. I hope that this will not discourage you.
