I'd probably be looking for conpatible packages for Debian i386 sarge and Debian AMD64 etch -- or starting to learn how to build such a package from scratch from source code. Though I suppose it wouldn't be too hard if there were a suitable Debian source package on *any* architecture. (says someone who has never built a Debian package before, not even from a Debian source package).I notice that there is a Debian packages for 0.24 in both sid and etch. But that, I gather, is major changes before 0.26.
You can build a deb from the monotone source. It is fairly simple to do so (dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc -rfakeroot). Once you build the deb and install it with 'dpkg -i' you may need to run 'apt-get -f install' to resolve dependencies.
If you're starting now, you definitely want to start with an 0.26ish version. I haven't tried it on debian AMD64, but one of our continuous testers is gentoo AMD64: http://venge.net/monotone/buildbot/ and everything works there. Of course, you can also simply use the i386 binaries.
I use monotone on AMD64 as well. My monotone client runs on AMD64. -- Matthew A. Nicholson matt-land.com
