 Hi,
 the warning about gretl on Ubuntu 11.04 has been on the homepage for a
 while (I think I had suggested it). Now that ubuntu 12.04 is out, I
 guess it's time to remove that warning from the web? Assuming that there
 isn't a problem now, that is. (I have upgraded one machine to 12.04, but
 I'm not running the built-in package there, so I don't know.) 
A little OT, but still: I had become a little disappointed with ubuntu for 
a variety of reasons, so last night I wiped ubuntu off the hard disk of my 
laptop and I replaced it with Mint Linux (Debian Edition). So far, I'm 
absolutely loving it. Also,
apt-get build-dep gretl
worked just fine at installing all the needed machinery for building gretl 
(apart from the fact that for building the pdf docs you also need 
texlive-latex-recommended and texlive-latex-extra). Heartily recommended.
