Not surprising considering that we are not building packages for natty.

I have a preliminary package for Natty (AMD64 only; the i386 build fails currently) in my PPA that might work for you:
https://launchpad.net/~hunter-kaller/+archive/ppa

but be aware that it is unsupported and you CANNOT ask for any help here if you run into any problems.

Great work people !!!

I did download, installed and ran the following from hunterk
https://launchpad.net/~hunter-kaller/+archive/ppa

It worked fine on Natty 64bit up-to-date as of 021411

Am just learning my way around it and may have a beginner question or two soon.

Thanks again and "may the open-source be with us"
