Slightly off-topic here yes :) Let's continue this on the ubuntu access 
list.

Luke has packaged LSR for Ubuntu universe. So if you are running 6.10 
(Edgy) and have universe enabled you should be able to just install it 
directly. 'apt-get install lsr' (or synaptic) should install lsr band 
all its dependencies.

I've tried it here and it works fine.
