Well, you’re not using Ubuntu Lucid, so why are you trying to install the Panda build with “lucid” in the name?

is below where I can build for precise and if so is there anything I should look out for or change?

Well, yes, you can grab Ubuntu Precise builds from the page you linked. These are experimental, however we don’t offer Precise builds for 1.8.0 (Ubuntu Precise wasn’t out yet at the time 1.8.0 was released).

grabbed the build and its working fine. thank you for your help I really appreciate it
