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
