Apertium on Ubuntu or Debian
There a various releases of Ubunutu :
- Dapper Drake

Dapper Drake
Several programs that are needed cannot be installed easily on Dapper Drake, because the version available with apt-get are too old. We suggest to install a newer version of Ubuntu as for example Edgy Eft or Feisty Fawn
Edgy Eft
