Greetings, thumbdrive.
What was the process you used to 'install' extundelete?
I figured my thumbdrive distro (KNOPPIX) would be the best place to have a utility to recover any files I might accidentally delete from my ext4 partitions.
But, I get unresolved dependencies related to e2fs when I try to install it. I checked with dumpe2fs and I have the version needed according to the extundelte website.
<rant>Why is is SO EXTREMELY HARD to install ANYTHING??? If you download the source, you have to go through the whole makefile mess which requires (among other things) a bunch of packages which aren't in the repos, or you can try the package route and end up with unresolved dependencies! </rant>
Is there a guide anywhere on how to actually get stuff other people wrote to compile in Linux?

Greetings again, thumbdrive.
Using Synaptic, I notice the following:
extundelete has 5 dependencies;
the first dependency, e2fslibs >= 1.41.99, is currently unmet; but,
this unmet dependency has a solution in the testing repo.
I would expect Synaptic to install extundelete AND to upgrade e2fslibs
if it has access to the testing repo.
I suggest you give Synaptic a try if you haven't.
