Need help to install Kup Backup System
 
I'm trying to install Kup Backup System

I cloned the git repository here to my computer and checked the readme file, which I share below:

Code:

$ cat README
To compile you need:
 - CMake
 - Development headers for libqt4, libkdeui, libkfile and libsolid.

Run from the source directory:
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make
sudo make install

Note that this will install a policykit file that allows any user to have kup run 'bup' as root without asking for password.

I have cmake already, but when I tried to install the next item - 'libqt4-dev' (which I guess is what they mean by 'development headers), I got the following output:

Code:

$ sudo aptitude install libqt4-dev
The following NEW packages will be installed:
  libdrm-dev{a} libdrm-nouveau2{a} libgl1-mesa-dev{a} libglu1-mesa-dev{a} libkms1{a} libpthread-stubs0{a}

This looks pretty scary to me. Any advice would be much appreciated!

I'm running Kubuntu 12.04.01.

Thanks.

I've just solved this.

Below the link the GIt repo in the download page, I found a list of .deb files for each distro! Sorry - should have carried on reading!
