Pastel Partner does not appear to be a linux program, and thus cannot be run directly.

You will need to install the "wine" (windows emulation/compatibility layer) package; however this system is a "best-effort" system, and it cannot be guaranteed that this will work --- you have to try.

If you have not used this program previously, you *may* find it easier to use some of the accounting software available in the built-in software repositories. These will certainly be easier to install, but may not have the features you are looking for -- this depends upon your circumstances.

It doesn't appear in the appdb too. If it doesn't run then try the wine ppa to get wine 1.3 which is a later version than in the ubuntu repos

Can you help with this problem?
