The problem is clear for me, You are using a package for Lucid in Karmic.
This cannot be considered a bug. 
In any case I suggest you to use the Lucid 10.4 that it is a long term support 
(LTS) distro. 
If do you want use Ardesia on karmic please follow the instruction on the wiki 
to build the deb package http://code.google.com/p/ardesia/wiki/CreateDebPackage.
Sorry but at the moment I have choosen to support only the LTS.
You can also try to make some symbolic link from your libbfd and the desired 
modern version.
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libbfd-2.20.so /usr/lib/libbfd-2.20.1-system.20100303.so

I had the same problem testing the app under Linux Mint 10, but everything 
worked perfectly after this command:

sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libbfd-2.20.51-system.20100908.so 
/usr/lib/libbfd-2.20.1-system.20100303.so

Pietro, this software is really amazing. It will be widely useful for an open 
source software I'm developing. Thanks a lot.
