• PythonVersion < 2.6

If you get a message complaining about the wrong Python version when installing the following packages :

• python-rapi2
• python-rra
• python-rtfcomp

This work around worked for me:

1. make sure you have the deb-src lines from Mark in your source list
2. make sure you have the following packages installed:
   1. fakeroot
   2. dpkg-dev
3. cd into a work directory
4. here do:
   1. apt-get source librapi2
   2. apt-get source librra0
   3. apt-get source librtfcom
5. cd into the librapi2 dir and do
6. dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot
7. cd .. and do
8. dpkg -i *rapi*deb
9. now repeat this for the other two directory

If you get a message like: /bin/sed: can't read /usr/lib/libhal.la: No such file or directory libtool: link: `/usr/lib/libhal.la' is not a valid libtool archive make[4]: *** [librapi.la] Fehler 1 you need to do the follwoing: 1. open the file:{{{ /usr/lib/libsynce.la}}}2. find the line with the dependencies. It should look something like: # Libraries that this one depends upon. > dependency_libs=' /usr/lib/libhal.la -ldbus-glib-1 -ldbus-1 /usr/lib/libglib-2.0.la -lrt -lm' 3. Change this line to look like this:     dependency_libs=' -lhal -ldbus-glib-1 -dbus-1 /usr/lib/libglib-2.0.la -lrt -lm' After doing this, everything worked out fine!
