It's not the project's team duty to build specific packages for each and 
every possible platform / distro / package manager. Debian, Unbuntu, 
Mandriva, RedHat, Gentoo etc all build their own specific packages for 
the projects they want to be part of their distro. Bad luck you choose a 
distro that doesn't do a proper job here. May I suggest you give Ubuntu 
a try ? You might find it very welcoming to outsiders !-)
