Comment 13 for bug 1175458

  The APTONCD from your team's area still works, but was wondering if and when it or a working version will be placed in the Ubuntu repositories (Ubuntu 14.02?)? I just tried APTONCD in repository of Ubuntu 13.10 with all updates applied and it still gives the following error messages:
