Installing from Source Code might well be the simplest solution.


If you need to install something on several boxen, you can make your own .deb 
package -fairly- easily -- although it probably will have too many little 
technicalities to be accepted by the Debian project.

What I have done with homebrew .debs is have the package depend on `build-
essential` and the necessary `*-dev` .debs, install the Source Code files under 
/usr/src/, then do the build process in the postinst script.  This allows you 
to install the same .deb on 32 bit, 64 bit or Raspberry Pi architectures.
