  um, i *know* how to install a package in ubuntu.  my point above was
that some online documentation i read suggested that evince had been
recently enhanced to support commenting PDF files, but the stable
version for 10.10 doesn't seem to have anything like that; at least
nothing that i've noticed unless i just can't see it.

  what i wrote above has nothing to do with okular, so i don't
understand what point you're making.
