Hi all, One requires the termcap-compat package for installation of fds on Ubuntu and Debian. Unfortunately, this package is not available for the x86_64 platform. In order to install fds on a Ubuntu Dapper x86_64 xen-U this workaround seems to work for me: - Get the termcap-5.4-4.noarch.rpm and libtermcap-2.0.8-41.x86_64.rpm package from the Fedora Core 4 x86_64 distribution. - Convert these two packages to .deb and install them (dpkg -i).
