Hi Fabrice, I just installed a fresh Ubuntu 12 on a new VM for testing purposes, and used the debian repository as described on the PF web page. I did have a problem with the server key though (keys.gnupg.net) and tryed an alternate way to get the key (gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv 810273C4). That might be the source of the problem. However it did not create problem on my Debian test VM.
While waiting for some feedback from the list, I tried to install those missing libraries after downloading them directly from the PF web. Still fighting to install those, as they also have unmet dependencies...
