+# Installing the Monkeysphere package and validation agent #
+
## Dependencies ##
Monkeysphere relies on:
* [OpenSSH](http://openssh.com/)
* [GnuPG](http://gnupg.org/)
- * [Perl](http://www.perl.org/) (including the [Crypt::OpenSSL::RSA](http://search.cpan.org/dist/Crypt-OpenSSL-RSA/) and [Digest::SHA1](http://search.cpan.org/dist/Digest-SHA1/) modules and their dependencies)
+ * [Perl](http://www.perl.org/) (including the [Crypt::OpenSSL::RSA](http://search.cpan.org/dist/Crypt-OpenSSL-RSA/) and [Digest::SHA](http://search.cpan.org/dist/Digest-SHA/) modules and their dependencies)
## Debian ##
If you are running a [Debian](http://www.debian.org/) system, the
-[monkeysphere is available in the Debian testing ("squeeze")
-distribution](http://packages.debian.org/testing/monkeysphere). If
-you are running Debian testing, it is easy to install:
+[monkeysphere is available in the Debian archive](http://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=monkeysphere&searchon=names§ion=all&suite=all)
+
+If you are running Debian unstable or testing install the latest monkeysphere
+version as follows:
aptitude install monkeysphere
+If you are running Debian stable, you can get the monkeysphere package
+from [backports.org](http://backports.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=instructions)
+
+To get started using the Monkeysphere for website validation, you will
+need to install the Monkeysphere Validation Agent. Currently the perl
+version of the agent is available in Debian sid, or directly from our
+APT repository (see below):
+
+ aptitude install msva-perl
+
+## Debian derivatives (including Ubuntu) ##
+
You can also install the Monkeysphere directly from the Monkeysphere
-Debian archive. You can add this archive to your system by putting
+APT repository. You can add this archive to your system by putting
the following lines in `/etc/apt/sources.list.d/monkeysphere.list`:
deb http://archive.monkeysphere.info/debian experimental monkeysphere
verify the packages, you'll want to [add this key to your apt
configuration after verifying its integrity](/archive-key).
+Note: Ubuntu shipped Monkeysphere 0.22 in their "Jaunty Jackalope"
+release (9.04). The Monkeysphere developers think that [Ubuntu
+shipping Monkeysphere 0.22-1 is a bad
+idea](https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/monkeysphere/+bug/345054).
+If you are an Ubuntu user, we would prefer that you install from the
+APT archive above rather than run 0.22, which we no longer consider
+supported.
+
+Ubuntu users running "Karmic Koala" (9.10) or later should see version
+0.26-1 or later in the standard Ubuntu universe repository, so please
+use the regular Ubuntu repositories if you're running Karmic or later.

## FreeBSD ##
There is [a FreeBSD port
Enjoy!
+## Slackware ##
+
+Silvio Rhatto has made [a SlackBuild
+script](http://slack.sarava.org/slackbuilds/net/misc/monkeysphere/)
+for the Monkeysphere, tested against Slackware 12.2.
+
+This is generated by [the mkbuild system](http://simplepkg.sarava.org)
+from [its .mkbuild
+source](http://slack.sarava.org/mkbuilds/net/misc/monkeysphere/).
+
+Thanks, rhatto!
