I am trying to setup a private test net with the source at: https://github.com/freewil/bitcoin-testnet-box
However, it requires bitcoind 0.7.2 (the latest version is 0.8.0).
I tried installing 0.7.2 with the following:
wget http://sourceforge.net/projects/bitcoin/files/Bitcoin/bitcoin-0.7.2/bitcoin-0.7.2-linux.tar.gz/download
but then get the following errors when I install:
sudo dpkg -i bitcoind_0.7.2-3_amd64.deb
Selecting previously unselected package bitcoind.
(Reading database ... 65728 files and directories currently installed.)
Unpacking bitcoind (from bitcoind_0.7.2-3_amd64.deb) ...

Following with

Still gives these errors:

I can't seem to figure out how to install these packages with apt-get even though they are listed here:
http://packages.ubuntu.com/quantal-updates/libboost-filesystem1.49.0
