LibreCAD on Ubuntu Lucid (10.04)

Moonguide
Is there something needed by LibreCAD that is available in Ubuntu Natty (11.04) that's not present in Ubuntu Lucid (10.04)?

I used this forum's search tool and found only one reference related to Ubuntu 10.04, and that was from someone who wanted to remove LibreCAD. That user installed LibreCAD from source. Is there a way to get a package that will work with 10.04?

Thanks.

Yes, there is some configuration things in dpkg (override targets, I
believe) that don't let us automatically build packages for 10.04. The
packages do exist on 10.10, however. You can try to install the
librecad .deb from:

Beta testing 2.0 branch:
https://code.launchpad.net/~librecad-dev/+archive/librecad-daily?field.series_filter=maverick

Just download it and install it from the command line:
$ sudo dpkg -i {filename of your .deb}
$ sudo apt-get install -f

I don't know if this will work on 10.04, but it might
