[LUAU] traceroute missing on Ubuntu 8*

[Jeff Mings]

Aloha Al!

    I have been switching many of my boxen to Ubuntu, with the servers 
running the long term edition of 8.  In addition to using apt-get, you 
can just browse through all of the available / installed repository apps 
using aptitude from the console.  Yes, I still do a lot of work using 
SSH, and aptitude is great for looking through the available choices for 
adding an FTP server, or picking from the versions of a certain type of 
service that are available with a few keystrokes.

Good luck,

-Jeff
