Upgrade Awstats 6.9 to 7.0 on Ubuntu 10.04 LTS

Question

I want to take advantage of the new features in the latest version of Awstats on 10.04 but dont want to upgrade the OS as other software I am using requires that specific OS version.

Is there any way to upgrade? Already tried using aptitude and 6.9 is the latest version.

Thanks.

Download the latest from:

http://awstats.sourceforge.net/#DOWNLOAD

Extract the archive:

Copy:

awstats-7.0\wwwroot\cgi-bin\awstats.pl

To:

/usr/lib/cgi-bin

Copy:

awstats-7.0\wwwroot\cgi-bin\lang
awstats-7.0\wwwroot\cgi-bin\lib
awstats-7.0\wwwroot\cgi-bin\plugins
awstats-7.0\awstats-7.0\wwwroot\icon

To:

/usr/share/awstats

Open Webmin, Webmin Configuration, Webmin Modules, then browse for the file

awstats-7.0\awstats-7.0\tools\webmin\awstats-1.9.wbm

and install.

Update should now be complete.
