Has anyone tried installing it on Ubuntu Natty? It fails as soon as I click "install" in Software Center, giving the following error. I cannot install or play it at this point.
I'm using WorldOfGooSetup.1.41.deb from the Humble Bundle.

Hmmm...
My guess would be it's either a problem with the beta version of Linux, or they're changing the .deb specification or something and the old World of Goo deb is becoming obselete.
I would think that the Linux people would have some kind of bug reporter or something, so you could always ask them. The .deb works fine in Ubuntu and Kubuntu 10.10 for me.
You could also contact the people at humblebundle.com for technical support. They're kinda busy at the moment, as they're having another sale now, but they're usually vrey prompt in trying to help solve problems with the HIB games.
Another thing you could try is contacting 2DBoy directly at their contact form on 2dboy.com.
Sorry I can't help you directly, but good luck!

Thanks for the response. Beta 2 of Natty just came out, and it now has an "Ignore and Install" button. I will report this issue to the other parties you've mentioned.
Thanks again!
Oh, cool. That helps a lot.
But yeah, they should be alerted ahead of time that their old .debs are about to be obseleted. So if you could contact them, that'd be cool.
