Same thing here. Maxima is one of the very few packages
I compile myself. We should look into that problem because
Ubuntu is becoming very popular and I suspect it would
be very easy to generate a correct .deb package and send
it to Ubuntu developers. I suspect even "alien -d -c" applied
to the RPM package in Maxima's site would work.
