You forgot the attachement.

Hardy does ship with openchrome, although a slightly older version 
(0.2.901). If you still need the newest version for whatever reason, 
first file a bug at ubuntu bug tracker asking them to update, then start 
from a fresh extract of the openchrome 0.2.902 tarball.

The 2 commands below should bring you all the packages you need to build 
openchrome :
sudo apt-get build-dep xserver-xorg-video-via
sudo apt-get install subversion autoconf automake1.9 libtool

then inside of the freshly extracted dir :
./configure --prefix=/usr
make
sudo make install
