Uhmm, that's impossible.  Debian Med was *before* Ubuntu even existed
and thus it was at least not possible to target at supporting Ubuntu.
It has truned out that most of Debian's application packages just work
on Ubuntu - but it was neither intended nor tested specifically.  There
are people out there who say: Ubuntu is Debian - but untested.  In this
way Debian Med packages are working on Ubuntu.

So while we are happy if Debian Med packages just work on Ubuntu we can
not give any guarantee that this is the case in every detail (I
personally just can not because I'm not running any Ubuntu machine and
thus can not test).

... but if these issues are clearly Ubuntu related please raise them on
LaunchPad where they belong to.  I would happily help solving those
issues but I simply do not claim about things I have no chance to test.

Kind regards
