+<br />
+
+<p>
+<b>Do not use the packages in Ubuntu's universe.</b> They are unmaintained
+and out of date. That means you'll be missing stability and security
+fixes.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+You'll need to set up our package repository before you can fetch
+Vidalia. First, you need to figure out the name of your distribution. If
+you're using Ubuntu 9.10, it's  "karmic", while 9.04 is "jaunty",
+8.10 is "intrepid", and 8.04 is "hardy". If you're using Debian
+Etch, it's "etch", and Debian Lenny is "lenny". Then add this line to your
+<tt>/etc/apt/sources.list</tt>
+file:<br />
+<pre>
+deb     http://deb.torproject.org/torproject.org &lt;DISTRIBUTION&gt; main
+</pre>
+where you substitute the above word (etch, lenny, sid, karmic, jaunty,
+intrepid, hardy) in place of &lt;DISTRIBUTION&gt;.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+Then add the gpg key used to sign the packages by running
+<pre>
+gpg --keyserver keys.gnupg.net --recv 886DDD89
+gpg --export A3C4F0F979CAA22CDBA8F512EE8CBC9E886DDD89 | sudo apt-key add -
+</pre>
+Now refresh your sources and install Vidalia by running
+<pre>
+apt-get update
+apt-get install vidalia 
+</pre>
+</p>
+
+<p>
+Now Vidalia is installed and running. Move on to <a href="<page
+docs/vidalia-doc-unix>#polipo">step two</a> of the "Vidalia on Linux/Unix"
+instructions.
+</p>
+
+<p style="font-size: small">
+The DNS name <code>deb.torproject.org</code> is actually a set of independent
+servers in a DNS round robin configuration.  If you for some reason cannot
+access it you might try to use the name of one of its part instead.  Try
+<code>deb-master.torproject.org</code>,
+<code>mirror.netcologne.de</code> or
+<code>vidalia.mirror.youam.de</code>.
+</p>
+
+<hr />
+
+<p>
+Now Vidalia is installed and running. Move on to <a href="<page
+docs/vidalia-doc-unix>#polipo">step two</a> of the "Vidalia on Linux/Unix"
+instructions.
+</p>
+
+<hr />

+<a id="source"></a>
+<h2><a class="anchor" href="#source">Building from source</a></h2>
+<br />
+
+<p>
+If you want to build your own debs from source you must first add an
+appropriate <tt>deb-src</tt> line to <tt>sources.list</tt>.
+<pre>
+# For the stable version.
+deb-src http://deb.torproject.org/torproject.org &lt;DISTRIBUTION&gt; main
+</pre>
+You also need to install the necessary packages to build your own debs and the
+packages needed to build Vidalia:
+<pre>
+apt-get install build-essential fakeroot devscripts qt4-dev-tools qt4-designer libqt4-dev g++ cmake
+apt-get build-dep vidalia
+</pre>
+Then you can build Vidalia in ~/debian-packages:
+<pre>
+mkdir ~/debian-packages; cd ~/debian-packages
+apt-get source vidalia
+cd vidalia-*
+debuild -rfakeroot -uc -us
+cd ..
+</pre>
+Now you can install the new package:
+<pre>
+sudo dpkg -i vidalia_*.deb
+</pre>
+</p>
+
+<p>
+Now Vidalia is installed and running. Move on to <a href="<page
+docs/vidalia-doc-unix>#polipo">step two</a> of the "Vidalia on Linux/Unix"
+instructions.
