New packages for Ubuntu 8.04 and 8.10 are now uploaded to
packages.simula.no, however, there is a problem with the DOLFIN demos that
uses FFC and Instant. The problem is with pkg-config and the fact that
/usr/include is not included if not PKG_CONFIG_ALLOW_SYSTEM_CFLAGS is set
to 1. This results in that swig is unable to locate dolfin.i. The attached
patch for Instant should fix this issue.

Set PKG_CONFIG_ALLOW_SYSTEM_CFLAGS=1 by default.
