@Mahesh If your comment is intended to be a valid answer you should add it as an Answer below. (unless its just a suggestion) In case case you should label it as such. – Stephen Myall Aug 11 '12 at 21:37
Its a suggestion, very likely to work. Sorry for not labeling it as such. :) apt-get may refuse to install, in which case we need to use dpkg. but if it does install, the problem will be solved. – Mahesh Aug 12 '12 at 13:13
