Summary:
Update for Ubuntu 11.10

Detailed description
New Ubuntu 11.10 has removed Alexandria bookmanager from the list.
Which means i cannot use it anymore on 11.10. Very bad.

I need a bookmanager with working ISDN search function.
Another program GCStar has still own problems with ISBN code search, it's still not solved after many months. Another
fail.

I hope you can upgrade Alexandria bookmanager for Ubuntu 11.10.
It's one of the best managers and i have Amazon account for it. ISBN scan works good.

It's very important for many users.
Please.

When i installed the latest package, i get a message like
this in Ubuntu Software centre.

"can not satisfy dependency: libgnome2-ruby
(>=0.17)"

This messages prevent me to run the program Alexandria.
Please take a look at this problem.

Additional upgrade: try load the lists a bit faster, with
500+ books the list build is a bit slow compared to Tellico
manager. You can also try pre-load first some titles (you
cannot see all in small netbook window btw....)

Hm, it seems (according to #29419) that there's an additional
issue of removed dependencies that I'll need to fix before Alexandria
will install properly on the latest Ubuntu. Further updates as
events warrant.

You can get Alexandria 0.6.7 (released yesterday) at:

https://launchpad.net/~alexandria-team/+archive/ppa

For best results, you should sign up for an Amazon AWS account
to enable Amazon support (see the Alexandria online help for
instructions).
