Ubuntu 6.10, x86

I want to confirm that this package is not prepared in right way. And it is pity as xxkb is very cool keyboard switcher; I guess it could be very useful can be useful for XFCE (xubuntu) or IceWM. I would like to install it to GNOME desktop too.

$ sudo apt-get install xxkb

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.

Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
that package should be filed.
