The release blog entry here: http://www.gnashdev.org/?q=node/73
says to go here to download "experimental binary packages built by the gnash team": http://www.getgnash.org Going to www.gnashdev.org and clicking "Get the Code" leads to this page: http://www.gnashdev.org/?q=node/27 which says the current release is 0.8.5. Oops! Instead I went to "Get the Player", which led to: http://www.getgnash.org/packages/ I followed the instructions: > Add one of these to your sources.list file, and then run "apt-get update". > deb http://www.getgnash.org/deb-repo ubuntu main [I also added an identical deb-src line.] Running "apt-get update" produced a warning: W: GPG error: http://www.getgnash.org ubuntu Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 50B9A110A0B6D3FE When I tried "apt-get install gnash", it says: # apt-get install gnash Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming. The following information may help to resolve the situation: The following packages have unmet dependencies: gnash: Depends: gnash-common (= 0.8.7~bzr.trunk11943) but 0.8.5-0ubuntu1 is to be installed Depends: libboost-date-time1.40.0 (>= 1.40.0-1) but it is not installable Depends: libboost-thread1.40.0 (>= 1.40.0-1) but it is not installable Depends: libstdc++6 (>= 4.4.0) but 4.3.3-5ubuntu4 is to be installed E: Broken packages Trying to install gnash-common repeats the three other unsatisfied dependencies. It was a nice try to specify "ubuntu" rather than "jaunty", but unfortunately our built packages seem to be specific to Ubuntu Karmic rather than generic to multiple Ubuntu releases.
