I'm not sure. A "recommends" would still not fix it for everybody and
therefore the project itself should get fixed probably.

Please file a bug about this (including your findings of course), so we
can use this for future reference at least.
(https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/boinc/+filebug)

You might want to contact the climateprediction.net project maintainers
about this. Maybe there's some documentation about this already?


Thank you,
Daniel

Re: How to upgrade libnss-ldap on dapper 6.06 LTS

2008-02-09 Thread Daniel Hahler
Hello,

You could do the following:
1. Add Hardy sources to your apt sources.list
2. $ sudo apt-get update
3. $ apt-get source libnss-ldap, which should give you 258-1ubuntu2
4. $ apt-get build-dep libnss-dap
5. cd libnss-ldap*
6. debuild -uc -us

Then you have the sources from the most recent Ubuntu version compiled
as .deb.
You need to manually track updates though, unless a newer version enters
the archive, e.g. when upgrading to Hardy.

Instead of steps 1.-3. you can also get the source from launchpad
(https://edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libnss-ldap/258-1ubuntu2) and
unpack it using dpkg-source.

Instead of building the package on the system directly (steps 4-6), you
could tools like use pbuilder, which build them in a clean environment
and allow e.g. building packages for Dapper on a Hardy system.

If you need to deploy packages to more systems, "local repositories" or
Launchpad's PPA service are a good option, too.


Hope this helps.
