Well... by having a look at the README in the official package from Jean-Yves. "apt-get build-dep mail-notification" most likely installed abit too much stuff as things have changed abit between 4.x and 5.x, but you might have already installed autotools as it's a _very_ common dependency for other packages. cheers, -Pascal -- Homepage (http://organact.mine.nu) Debian GNU/Linux (http://www.debian.org) LACIME: École de technologie supérieure (http://lacime.etsmtl.ca) -- IMAP/POP3+SSL/TLS are disabled https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/44335 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
