Hmpf. The package name says "0.5.4+svn170-1" - a version number that
never existed. That appears to be some insane blend they cooked up all
by themselves.

Can anybody here provide decent Ubuntu packages of r178?

With a hex dump utility. There should be a 0x47 every 188 bytes (maybe
starting a little later in the file).
