OK, I got linuxcnc-dev installed on 2.5 and the hal comps compiled. All I needed to do was add the apt source "deb http://linuxcnc.org/ lucid base linuxcnc2.5"
For some reason the preexisting apt lines were for emc2.4, even though I installed the 2.5 image. Odd... Thanks all, I am leaning very slowly but surely! Off to try the comps in PP now.
