It still doesn't work. WHen I try 'apt-get install libgal9', I get:
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
Package libgal9 has no available version, but exists in the database.
This typically means that the package was mentioned in a dependency and
never uploaded, has been obsoleted or is not available with the contents
of sources.list
E: Package libgal9 has no installation candidate
