[ubuntu-za] Ubuntu 1210 problems need to roll back to previous version

[Nico Michael]

Hi there

I am having Ubuntu 1210 problems need to roll back to previous version

I purchased a License for  crossover-standard-demo_10.0.0-1_i386.deb two 
years ago which was working well on all versions of Ubuntu until
i re-rolled my laptop and put Ubuntu 1210 it no longer installes my DEB 
file
I the re-rolled my laptop and put : ubuntu-gnome-12.10-desktop-i386
to my horror it also wont let me install my DEB file

Has UBUNTU changed their DEB program and format to not be compatible 
with the DEB files of the last 2 years

I was considering to replace my Ubuntu wit Linux mint but to my horror i 
read the new version to be released this /or next month will be basing 
their build on Ubuntu1210
So I will have the same problem

I am going to roll-back my laptop to  the last version before Unity   
what ever that animal was called ?
*Could someone be so kind as to give me a place where I can download DEB 
files for that as I assume the repositories will now be trashed or 
incomplete *

*Could someone tell me where I can get complete repositories ? What URLs 
do I add to my software manager what ever you call that program that 
tracks your repositories?*

Is there a web site that keeps the old deb files for the last version 
before Narwhal  what ever number it was ?

And no its got nothing to do with Unity It has to do with compatibility 
to my existing tools


How can I convert my DEB files to the new Ubuntu or does a grown man 
start to cry  ?
*Its funny how the more I try to be loyal to Ubuntu the more curved 
balls fate throws at me.**
*
What do you call that ?  its not Kismet ?
