Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: schooltool
Ok, I tried to install schooltool, and here is the error I get:
sudo apt-get install schooltool
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
that package should be filed.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
schooltool: Depends: python2.4-schooltool (= 0.11.4-1ubuntu4) but it is not
going to be installed

I'm using Gutsy 64bit and everything is up to date. I assume this may be
related to bug #18340 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/18340
However I'm not that technical, just posting the bug to be a responsible Ubuntu
user, and to help the Ubuntu community. If there is anything further that I
could do please let me know. I hate to report this 8 days before the release
of Hardy Heron, because I do plan on updating. I'm surprised it has gone this
far without a single report. I guess it isn't a super popular program. :)
Ohh, here is the info about my computer from below:
Description: Ubuntu 7.10
Release: 7.10
schooltool:
Installed: (none)
Candidate: 0.11.4-1ubuntu4
Version table:
0.11.4-1ubuntu4 0

Hope that helps.
