Today I needed a fix for pgAdmin on Ubuntu 10.04 Lucis Lynx, which is my workstation (pgAdmin is a graphical ui for PostgreSQL database). To my dispair it just closed down when I tried to start it. Luckily I found a solution in this bugreport. I compiled my own and could continue to work.

This is what I did (note: I don’t garuantee it will work for you, I am not a software developer).

apt-get source pgadmin3
sudo apt-get install debhelper libpq-dev libwxgtk2.8-dev libxml2-dev libxslt1-dev autotools-dev devscripts
cd pgadmin3-1.10.2
dpkg-buildpackage
sudo dpkg -i ../pgadmin3_1.10.2-1_i386.deb
