Thanks, Julien and Stefano
for your suggestions. For the time being I changed the bst file at the
appropriate site (and->und). I might try archlinux later.
Oops, I didn't mean to suggest that switching distribution is the only
solution for installing biber!
I do think, however, that running TeXLive under Ubuntu/Debian may cause
problems *unless* you ditch the Ubuntu-provided packages and switch to the
true TeXLive distribution. I believe our own Scott K has indeed written a
series of scripts to make that process easier [1]
Cheers,

That sounds good. From the install instruction of it:
To do this, the official TeX Live 2014 installer is downloaded and
used and apt is informed that TeX dependencies are satisfied. Thus, when
you want to install a program with apt-get that depends on TeX Live, apt
will not try to install the TeX Live packages from the Ubuntu
repositories.
how is apt informed that TeX dependencies are satisfied?
Wolfgang
Through equivs. It basically installs a dummy package that as far as apt is
concerned is the same as installing TeX Live debs.

Something like http://www.tug.org/texlive/debian.html ? ->
Tell APT about your TeX Live installation by building a dummy package
using equivs:
|$ aptitude install equivs # as root
mkdir /tmp/tl-equivs && cd /tmp/tl-equivs
equivs-control texlive-local
# edit texlive-local (see below)
$ equivs-build texlive-local
$ sudo dpkg -i texlive-local_2014-1_all.deb
|
At the step "edit texlive-local", edit the Maintainer field and the list
of the packages provided by your local TeX Live installation as
appropriate. If you installed scheme-full except collection-texinfo as
recommended, the file should look like the following example file for TL
2014 <http://www.tug.org/texlive/files/debian-equivs-2014-ex.txt>. For
older releases use one of the following examples files: for TL 2013
<http://www.tug.org/texlive/files/debian-equivs-2013-ex.txt>, for TL
2011 <http://www.tug.org/texlive/files/debian-equivs-2011-ex.txt>.
