I'm glad to see someone has posted this, and quite a while ago at that.
It's *still* not fixed; I'm running feisty, and here is the story:
I wanted to install pidgin, the chat software previously known as gaim.
Well, it's not in the repositories, go figure, so I compile it from
source... no good,
Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: giftoxic
If someone runs:
apt-get install giftoxic
then it installs the frontend to gift, but not gift! There should be a
dependency here, no?
This is my first bug report, sorry if this message doesn't belong
here...
** Affects: giftoxic (Ubuntu)
