yeah, so I finally got around to installing Picasa for Ubuntu Gutsy on my laptop...yeah, the new version of Ubuntu is coming out next month, but I figured I could figure this out now, and then I'd be right on track for it when I redid everything next month.
Wow, it ended up being a little more involved than I expected. To say the least, I'll be including a tutorial on this with my next setup guide for Hardy Heron.
Okay, you can download an installation .deb file here, but to do it through the repositories you gotta hit the FAQs and you'll find your way to this tutorial which shows you how to add the google repositories through Synaptic. So that's what I did, and then when I reached the bottom of the page, in smaller print I find a link to a page which includes the commands for adding the google repository via the terminal - which I like more than using synaptic.
The cool thing is, after you add the repositories, you also can install the google desktop. Cool stuff, eh?
