I second that, Debian installs very easily on most computers.  Too bad we don't 
have a really, really, really smart student on summer vacation to do this.

Zax (Smart enough to know the only bingo in BCEILTU?, too dumb to know the new 
threes.  Well there you go.)

        Hi, all.  I've attempted to compile Quackle on my Kubuntu laptop a 
couple of times to no avail (Feisty 7.04).  Each time the compile process 
complained about some package or another not being installed, so I'd install 
the missing package and see errors indicating some *other* package needing to 
be installed.  Repeat until frustrated. 

Previous posts have indicated there was a *.deb package floating around out 
there.  Is this still available?  If so, I'd appreciate a link to it - all the 
old ones apparently are no longer valid.

In a general sense, I think making this software a little more accessible in 
package format for the major Linuxen (I'm thinking *.deb and *.rpm) would be 
helpful to a lot of people.  Given Ubuntu's increasing popularity, it might 
also be worthwhile to consider wrapping it up to be installable via Synaptic.  
Perhaps a tall order, as I don't know what those entail exactly, though I'm 
going to be learning in the near future for another Scrabble-related piece of 
software I'm developing. 

Many thanks in advance for any links to a Debian package.
