[Qgis-user] Problems with ubuntu-unstable again

[Bernd Vogelgesang]

Hi Angelos,
thanx a lot for the hint. It works!

This is now indeed the third variation of a working setup in a row.
We already had to enable three repositories, then two, and now it's only  
one. Unfortunately the instructions on the download page never manage to  
reflect those changes.

Cheers
Bernd
