Thanks Duncan - I've tried to install opsview-agent with core perl and base too on Ubuntu Jaunty 9.04 but I've only been running into problems.

First of all if I use Lenny's apt from Debian, only opsview-agent is available, the rest are not. If I use ubuntu hardy 8.04 apt all opsview packages are there.

We haven't yet release any packages for lenny, apart from the agent.  However, the source packages are available in the hardy archive so you can rebuild them yourself.  Just ensure the source line is included within the apt.sources list for the repo., i.e.

deb-src http://apt.opsview.org/opsview3 hardy main source

However I had to manually install libltdl3 from hardy's archived packages as it doesn't come with Jaunty anymore (the replacement doesn't satisfy opsview).

You would need to recompile the packages for it to work correctly.

Finally you mentionned I could recompile from source code but debian/ubuntu doesn't read .rpm so I'm not sure where else I can get source code. 

Its all in the apt repo's - you just need to configure your apt to pull them down for rebuilding

To rebuild the agent package (similar principle for all the others) you should be able to:

mkdir /tmp/builddir
cd /tmp/builddir
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get build-dep opsview-agent
sudo apt-get -b source opsview-agent

and then install the resulting package in the current directory.  I have documented this on a work in progress page here: http://docs.opsview.org/doku.php?id=opsview3.0:debian-agent
