Chris,
Be careful installing the extension pack in Ubuntu, make sure that the
versions are the same otherwise you will break the installation and create
a mess. The Ubuntu version (which I think may be 4.2) can only get the
version 4.2 extemnsion pack. You should stick with the extension pack which
comes with the Ubuntu installation.
