Of course, with the 20100314 Version i had the same Problem.

I use the Version 20100406 for Ubuntu 8.10. The file is named
kicad-2010-04-06-svn-R2508-final-UBUNTU_8.10.tgz, and you will find it
here
http://iut-tice.ujf-grenoble.fr/cao/old_versions/kicad-2010-04-06-svn-R2508-final-UBUNTU_8.10.tgz

But looking for this link, i noticed, that it is now at the folder for
the old versions, because just today, there is a new release, 20100505.
Perhaps i will test it at the weekend, and i would try
kicad-2010-05-05-BZR2356-stable-UBUNTU_8.10.tgz. Debian Lenny
corespondences a little with Ubuntu 8.10, but Ubuntu 9.10 is too far
ahead. It correspondences with the actual Debian "testing".

It would be nice, if i would be able to do this. But i have no
programming skills (i did some Fortran and Pascal programming courses at
the univerity about 15 years ago) and now i do some "Voodoo" like
computer actions.
Actual, i try to learn Gambas, because it is a programming language with
only little objektorientated thinking needed. I am just too stupid for
thinking objektorientated.

But i am far far away from the skills needed for building debian
packages in a reasonable manner.

So i put omly some librarys and modules to the KiCAD community.
