Had the same problem (am running on Ubuntu 8.10 too).
I simply temporarily enabled the Ubuntu 9.04 repos in order to pull a
more recent version of the tool-chain (the repos have avr-gcc 4.3.2).
It installed and works just fine. Turned a buggy program that got me
pull nearly all of my hair...into a sweet piece of code that "just
works (tm)" , give it a try ! ;-)
