Hi Chris,

Thanks for your offer to help!

Here is what I am trying to do:

I want to install a GPLed video application called
Miro<http://www.getmiro.com/>.
The installation notes say the following:

-------

To install the latest version of Miro on Ubuntu Feisty, you need to add the
following repository to your apt sources list:
deb http://ftp.osuosl.org/pub/pculture.org/miro/linux/repositories/ubuntufeisty/

To install the latest version of Miro on Ubuntu Dapper, you need to add the
following repository to your apt sources list:
deb http://ftp.osuosl.org/pub/pculture.org/miro/linux/repositories/ubuntudapper/

-----

Dapper did not work, feisty is dangerous, but I know that I least one person
managed to install miro on gNewSense using an Ubuntu package.

any idea what the trick is?
