Kenneth,

I reread your email (and my original email) and think I need to spend more
time explaining.

The purpose of the original email is to state that rakarrack-0.30 is
available for Lucid in the official repositories.  At this time, it is the
ONLY version for Lucid from the official repositories.

However, the rakarrack-0.4.2 is available for Maverick.  I took this package
and built it for Lucid in my PPA.

If you add my PPA to your software repository sources list you can update
Rakarrack from rakarrack-0.3.0 to rakarrack-0.4.2. from my PPA.

I hope this provides the necessary additional explanation.
