Installation issues / Re: Won't work on Ubuntu Feisty

Sure only supporting 1 distro is one thing, but hardcoding the sources.list is something completely different.

Apt/dpkg is there to handle dependencies. If it's already built around Ubuntu only there is no reason not to use it for the installation process.

I just tried installing it aswell and can only STRONGLY warn about not installing it on Feisty unless you know excactly what you're doing. It seems to replace the sources.llist with stuff for edgy only. Can severally break your system. I'm quite astonished it doesn't even make a backup of the original sources.list.

Edit:
After the failed installation apt was broken. I found out that it also inserts some apt.conf.d files with some rather bad settings.

/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/30pluto contains the option
Code: [Select]
Apt::Cache-Limit "12582912"; which is too low for my setup.
I have to admit I'm quite dissapointed how the installer is so careless.

Btw for the missing liboobs-1.so.2 you can just install the liboobs-1.2 package instead
