postgres password? Oh. That means you're running the sudo command as
the postgres user, which doesn't have sudo capabilities. Per the
instructions at the top of that page, then, become the root user and
issue the command:

aptitude install postgresql-contrib-8.2 postgresql-plperl-8.2
OK.  I went back to root user and entered your string and got the following:

Do I go back to the command I was trying to run or does this supplant that?

Nope, that's all there is. Mind you, this is the first time someone
following those instructions has reported the problem that you have
reported, and the Ubuntu 8.04 VMWare image at
http://open-ils.org/downloads.php was built following those directions
step by step.
 
Isn't it nice to be a pioneer?  Actually I am not using VMWare.  I used the 3rd choice: "Download and install the Evergreen server" and installed it to its own box.  I'm thinking what I really need is a course in linux.
Thanks,
Dave
