inspite of Best wishes from you and detailed instructions
and even I followed them ditto I get following

rsp@DELL-1710:~$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure firebird2.1-super
/usr/sbin/dpkg-reconfigure: firebird2.1-super is broken or not fully installed

I dont know What I am missing.

My repositories are "main repositories"
are u using something different. Thats only doubt now.

Meanwhile I tried Classic also but same results.

When I tried with synaptic I get more detailed error like
failure of server-common package.

Any other suggestion ?

Can Firebird Community release new tar.gz for Kubuntu 9.10 ?

Thanks and best regards.
