Picard Linux Install

Ubuntu
Packages

to/etc/apt/sources.list
- Do
sudo apt-get update
to update the repositories and thesudo apt-get install picard
in console to install Picard

Tested under 5.10 Breezy Badger. -- Shrike As of April 2, 2006, this does not work under Dapper.
Note: if you are getting a error like: "Attribute Error: 'module' object has no attribute 'eTooManyPUIDs'", try removing libtunepimp2c2 (older library from breezy). That fixed things for me.
