error installing dnsproxy on Lucid

[Tapas Mishra]

I have a server in a DMZ where I do not have DNS entries so dnsproxy
is what I want to use here is what I did
the situation looks similar to this bug
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dnsproxy/+bug/567008
but the fix I used did not helped me.

Description: proxy for DNS queries

 dnsproxy forwards DNS queries to two previously configured nameservers:

 one for authoritative queries and another for recursive queries.

 The received answers are sent back to the client unchanged.

 No local caching is done.

 .

 Primary motivation for this project was the need to replace Bind servers with

 djbdns in an ISP environment. These servers get recursive queries from

 customers and authoritative queries from outside at the same IP address.

 Now it is possible to run dnscache and tinydns on the same machine with

 queries dispatched by dnsproxy.

 .

 Another possible scenario is a firewall where proxy queries should be

 forwarded to the real server in a DMZ.

I checked there was a bug
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dnsproxy/+bug/634880
The fix was mentioned here
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dnsproxy/+bug/567008

So it was manually downloaded
wget http://debian.nctu.edu.tw/ubuntu//pool/universe/d/dnsproxy/dnsproxy_1.16-0.1_amd64.deb
but when I install these again then I get the same problem again.
