[Neurodebian-users] Problems installing Condor on Ubuntu 10.04

[Michael Hanke]

Hi,

this looks broken. There is no recent version of Condor for Ubuntu 10.04
available from NeuroDebian. You have three options:

1. If you can, please upgrade to the last LTS release 12.04 and use the
   Condor package 7.8.7 from NeuroDebian (should work)

2. Use the binary package for Debian squeeze form the NeuroDebian repo.
   (might work)

2. Visit the webpage of the Condor project and download there Debian
   package for Debian squeeze (should work)

Let me know if you can't get it to run.

Based on your feedback, I'll take the outdated version of Condor we are
offering for lucid down.

Sorry,

Michael
