** Description changed:

  it seems dansguardian installation should be made simpler.
  
  please see the ticket below that I have been trying to help

  ------quoting ticket---------
  I am using the instructions provided by Olli' s journal for "Setting up DansGuardian on a single home PC running Ubuntu (/journal/item-985.php). When I tried to execute the sample commands the following occured:
  
  cff at edubuntu:~$ sudo apt-get install dansguardian tinyproxy
  Password:
  Reading package lists... Done
  Building dependency tree... Done
  E: Couldn't find package dansguardian
  
  When added the specific name and version of the downloaded software the
  following occured:
  
  cff at edubuntu:~$ sudo apt-get install dansguardian-2.9.8.0 tinyproxy
  Reading package lists... Done
  Building dependency tree... Done
  E: Couldn't find package dansguardian-2.9.8.0
  
  BTW, the software was downloaded to my desktop and as you probably
  suspect, I am a novice with Linux.
  
+ First, I want to make sure that it is known how appreciative I am for
+ all of the help that I have received from "towsonu2003". Second, I am a
+ volunteer to the Computers For Families (CFF) program www.sbcff.org , as
+ part of the IBM On Demand Community program, that is offering free
+ computers to elementary school students in order to erase the digital
+ divide in Santa Barbara. Last, the CFF program mission is simply "a
+ computer for every child who can't afford one". We want to replace
+ Windows 2000 with Edubuntu on the donated computers, therefore, we need
+ to replace the Windows only content filter, that is donated by
+ Cybersitter, with DansGuardian.
