@Andrew: the "owner" of the PPA only uploads a source package. The build is done by Soyuz [0] on Canonical's infrastructure.
The Hugin source code lives in a Mercurial (Hg) repository, not CVS. One contributor to the PPA has an automated script to generate the "nightlies". Approximately every 24 hours the script checks the latest status of the repository and if there have been changes it *automatically* builds a source package and post it to the build farm at Canonical. The process for the "latest builds" is manual and described here [1]. I produce some of them when I have time/resources. So far I did not have resources for neither Maverick nor Natty. I need my workstation (Lucid) for work. The Hugin PPA can use new contributors. @Wolfgang: thank you for your feedback, it helped identifying the problem. I am not sure if it has been fixed, can somebody check again and confirm? there should not be any need to force installation.
