I can confirm that those instructions don't work for Ubuntu 10.10.  I
managed to work around the problem, but I haven't gotten around to write
down the exact details.  IIRC the trick is to modify
"/etc/apt/sources.list" in the chroot environment, so it includes the
"universe" section of the package repository.

Yes!  (And I have an Ada program installed on my Arduino. ;-)
