I don't know if packages.ubuntu.com uses the -updates pockets.  It seems
to include -security, but not -updates.  That's frustrating!

Are you sure you have the -updates pocket enabled in your
/etc/apt/sources.list ?

Correct, 1.1.2-0.1ubuntu2 was built for gutsy.  You want the
1.1.2-0.1ubuntu1.1 from the -updates pocket.

I hope this helps!
