Ok.  Which wiki page did you look at?  We should be directing maverick users
to enable the linaro-maintainers/tools ppa, which includes both the
linaro-image-tools and qemu-linaro packages.

  https://wiki.linaro.org/Releases/DailyBuilds#On%20Ubuntu%2010.10

Is there another wiki page with conflicting instructions that we need to
clean up?  Or did you read this and go for the download instead of the ppa
(in which case we should clarify the text to direct people to the ppa more
strongly)?

Thanks,
