You can try to just compile and install from sources. See instructions in the source package. Worst thing that can happen is that it does not work. If you decide to have the self-compiled binaries and the ones from Ubuntu installed at the same time, you need to make sure to use the right ones. Personally (on Debian) I just locked the distro-package against updates and installed the self-compiled ones over the distribution binaries. That is dirty and may break at some time, but then I will just install over it again. An alternative is to install the self-compiled to /usr/local/* and make sure to call them instead of the distribution-supplied ones.

The first method is far more difficult. --Tony Hoare _______________________________________________ dm-crypt mailing list dm-crypt@xxxxxxxx http://www.saout.de/mailman/listinfo/dm-crypt
