Comment 9 for bug 292998

Just to keep things current.
go to http://hea-www.harvard.edu/RD/ds9/ and download whatever is under the Linux64 link instead of wget the broken link.
It used to be working out of the box for Kubuntu but now it seems to fail with 9.10.
Thanks for this "workaround" I guess it'll get fixed when repositories update this piece of software.
