You need publican installed to build the PUG, but you should be able to
build it with the version in Ubuntu.

You can also download a PDF from
http://jfearn.fedorapeople.org/en-US/Publican/1.5/pdf/Users_Guide/Publican-1.5-Users_Guide-en-US.pdf

It's a little out of date because I have been busy :(

Cheers, Jeff.
