I suppose your are talking about <http://www.janw.dommel.be/picprog.html>?  
If not, just ignore my comments ;-)

You can try to add the line:

deb http://www.janw.dommel.be/picprog/ i386/

to "/etc/apt/sources.list" and then run "apt-get update".

My picprog package is compiled for debian/unstable. So, it is possible that you
can not install it on ubuntu or debian/testing without re-compiling it.

You can try the following:

 - add the line "deb-src http://www.janw.dommel.be/picprog/ i386/" to
   /etc/apt/sources.list
 - run "apt-get update"
 - run "apt-get source --compile picprog", now apt-get should fetch the
   necessary files and start compiling picprog.
 - you should now have a fresh compiled "picprog_1.8.1-2_i386.deb" package
   that you can install on your ubuntu system.


Hope this helps you. Good luck!

Thanks Jan. I tried all that but it didn't work. Complains about libstdc++6
and libgcc1(among other things). Well, I can get the debian package OK but
like I said, it still complains:(

Here's the entire console session, hope it doesn't look so messy in your
browser!

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created

Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
that package should be filed.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

It seems to me that there is a problem with the content of
your "/etc/apt/sources.list" or that you have forgotten to
do an "apt-get update".

Have you done an "apt-get update" after altering "/etc/apt/sources.list"?

I don't know ubuntu very well, but I think to solve your problem you should
have something like this in your "/etc/apt/sources.list"

 | deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy main restricted universe multiverse
 | deb-src http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy main restricted universe multiverse 
 | deb http://www.janw.dommel.be/picprog/ i386/
 | deb-src http://www.janw.dommel.be/picprog/ i386/

After that, do : - "apt-get update" followed by 
                 - "apt-get source --compile picprog"


Good luck!

This isn't normal. Maybe there are some ubuntu users here that can verify
your "/etc/apt/sources.list"?

Ok, "dpkg-dev" isn't installed on your PC. You can install that by typing
"apt-get install dpkg-dev".

Something is wrong with your Ubuntu system. Or you have problems
connecting to the depository.

Why make life so difficult, get the source package and not use Debian
package. It is very easy to build from source.

Download the original source package from the original author.
http://hyvatti.iki.fi/~jaakko/pic/picprog.html

After some typing, you will have a working picprog.
  tar -zxvf picprog-1.8.1.tar.gz q
  cd picprog-1.8.1
  make dep
 make
  sudo make install

####@####.#### picprog --help
Picprog version 1.8.1, Copyright (c) 2006 Jaakko Hyvätti ####@####.####
...

In fact, I think for the open source PIC related tools under Linux, it
is always
better to get the source and build from the source. Some of them are
moving very fast (like sdcc/gpsim and piklab). gputils is not moving now though.

Xiaofan

I forget which the generic ubuntu dependency was that got gcc + make and 
the other good stuff - which it seems is not in the default install.

gcc and autoconf help here.

Ok, let's try something else, because we are making things more complicated
then they are.

I have build a new picprog-package with pbuilder for ubuntu-breeze. You can
download it here:

       <http://www.janw.dommel.be/picprog/ubuntu_breeze/index.html>

I hope this works for you. If this doesn't work, I agree with Xiaofan that
it is probably easier to install for source:

       <http://hyvatti.iki.fi/~jaakko/pic/picprog.html>


Good luck!

build-essential will bring in gcc and make and some others.
Those auto tools are useful. Anyway, in order to build gpsim and piklab,
lots of other things are necessary. It seems to me that Broadband is
*essential* for using Linux.

A DVD version of Ubuntu Breezy might help as well.
