These debian package files have been built on Kubuntu 9-04. If you want a current rosegarden, go to your local repository. These are based on a _very old version_ which you won't want unless you have a need for the Glasgow Pitch Tracker functionality as a systematic musicology tool or rehearsal/practice aid. See the project page, http://www.n-ism.org/Projects/microtonalism.php for details. To install, download both deb files, and issue the dpkg install command like this: sudo dpkg -i rosegarden*.deb You will probably get warnings about a newer version being available or already installed. If you have a newer version already, decide whether or not you really want to downgrade and proceed accordingly. If you don't have rosegarden installed, the command above will still fail complaining about a load of unsatisfied dependencies. Say sudo atp-get -f install to load all of the stuff you need automagically. This will cause the new version of rosegarden to be installed too, so re-issue the dpkg command above to overwrite it. To uninstall, just apt-get remove rosegarden. You'll be told sooner or later that all the stuff you installed to satisfy depenedencies can be safely removed. To do that, sudo apt-get autoremove Nick Bailey, August 2009.
