This really needs to be done by someone who's sitting at the relevant type of machine...

(In [12108]) Correct the dependency list for the debian package. Some of the package names require the version number at the end so they are set to the Ubuntu 10.04 ones for now. The only thing left is what to do about nexus. I guess we need a repository of our own with a debian file in. Re #2887

The package itself is created and its contents are correct.

Upon installation there are errors: 

Selecting previously deselected package mantid.
(Reading database ... 215488 files and directories currently installed.)
Unpacking mantid (from mantid_1.29.12769-1_amd64.deb) ...
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of mantid:
 mantid depends on libnexus0 (>= 4.2); however:
  Package libnexus0 is not installed.
 mantid depends on google-perftools; however:
  Package google-perftools is not installed.
dpkg: error processing mantid (--install):
 dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
Errors were encountered while processing:
 mantid

The package is installed and will function but we are missing the libNeXus dependency so MantidNexus doesn't work.

We know about this so I've created a ticket to finish off the stuff around the apt repository, #3243
