Where can I get the python-uno package?


Hello everybody,
I have a Debian 3.1 and decided to try the
new OpenOffice.org 2.0. I downloaded the .deb packages from backports.org and installed them using dpkg. Everything was installed (almost) without problems, except the Writer. This package requires another package named python-uno. However, I cannot find it anywhere; can you help?
Thanks very much in advance,
ccico

What don't you just use apt-get to get it? As root type:
Code:
apt-get install python-uno
You could also use synaptic if you prefer a GUI.

Just a note: openoffice 2.0 is now in the Debian repositories, so you can also get and install that using apt-get.

Sincerely, Jorgen

Hi Jorgen,
that was the very first thing I tried, but I got the following output:

#apt-get install python-uno
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
Package python-uno is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source
E: Package python-uno has no installation candidate

Another question: could you please tell me what Debian repositories are? Normally, I use aptitude to manage the package installation, but when I let it update the package information, the openoffice.org packages are still available in version
1.1.something only. Maybe if you could tell me the destination
you know about, that would be great...
Bye,
ccico
