[Pushmi-users] Pushmi and Ubuntu

[Leif Canfield]

Hi guys,
I'm sorry to burden your Uber-hacker list with my newbishness but I've been floundering around trying to get Pushmi installed and I need help.  I am running Ubuntu gutsy server and I need to get Pushmi working so I can sync between the US and India.  I've tried installing through cpan, but I'm not a perl guy and I get this error:

   root at nomad:~# perl -MCPAN -e 'install Pushmi'
 ...
   - SVN::Core        ...loaded. (1.4.4 >= 1.004003)
 ...
   Warning: prerequisite SVK 2.0.0 not found. We have v2.0.2.
 ...

   Shall I follow them and prepend them to the queue
   of modules we are processing right now? [yes]

Ouch!  I really like David's idea of a nice easy apt module, so I added his repository and then I get all kinds of new problems.  The pushmi package depends on his version of memcached, so I get this error:        pushmi: Depends: memcached (> 1.2.2) but it is not going to be installed
I tried to upgrade/install memcached again and I get this error:
     root at ad2039:~# apt-get install memcached

     Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
     distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming.

     Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
     that package should be filed.
     The following information may help to resolve the situation:

     The following packages have unmet dependencies:
       memcached: Depends: libc6 (>= 2.7-1) but 2.6.1-1ubuntu10 is to be installed
                            Depends: libevent1 (>= 1.3e) but 1.3b-0 is to be installed
     E: Broken packages

libc6 and libevent1 show as the most recent versions.
Can someone please help me? I'm a lowly intern and I bow before your uber-hacker wisdom! Please save me from abuse at the hands of my ubuntu!
